We place the highest importance on the successful development of literacy skills. Our curriculum caters for English teaching and development of reading, writing and speaking and listening is through our topics.

In addition, we use the VIPERS (an acronym for the skills of Vocabulary, Inference, Prediction, Explanation, Retrieval and Summary / Sequence) to teach reading discretely every day. We encourage the love of reading and regularly undertake Buddy Reading and Paired Reading across the school.
