English

The teaching of English underpins any successful curriculum.

The Subject of English spans a wide-range of core skills, from reading and writing to oracy and vocabulary. Therefore, we have a subject team with a broad range of skills, across the breadth of the English curriculum.

Kate Wenham is the faculty lead, supported by Michelle Clemens and Lucy Lees (Phonics, Early Reading & Spelling), Toni Spencer (Drama, Language and Oracy), Rosie Watts (Writing and Handwriting), Julie Milgate (EYFS), Paula Rudall (Early Language and Communication) and Sarah Thorn (SEND). Hannah Westlake, Sophie Kennard, Laura Mercy and Emily Daniels (SENDCO) will also be supporting the work of the team.
