Synopsis

Covering all major aspects of primary English, from reading and writing, to grammar, vocabulary and oracy, and following the foundations set in the early years, this book will support you through your teacher training and early career in the classroom while also offering fresh insights for experienced teachers.

Each topic moves from robust theory and the latest research to practical classroom application, offering nuanced teaching guidance grounded in experience.

Hands-on strategies, classroom case studies and opportunities to reflect on your learning combine to support high-quality literacy teaching, and effective planning and assessment.

This second edition has been fully updated to:

• Apply insight from recent policy to teaching, including the DfE’s 2023 Reading Framework and the policy intentions of the 2024 Labour government.
• Offer guidance on teaching children for whom English is an additional language (EAL).
• Expand the discussion of reading for pleasure, utilising recent research on this topic.
