English

At Bitterne CE Primary School, our English curriculum is designed to provide all pupils with a high-quality, inspirational education. We are committed to nurturing progressive reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills, laying the foundation for a lifelong love of literature and language. Our aim is to foster a love for literature and language, empowering the children to become confident and proficient readers, writers, and communicators, equipped with the essential skills to thrive in their academic lives and future endeavours.

We believe that a strong foundation in English is vital for success in all aspects of the curriculum and is essential for our pupils to be able to navigate their future lives. Therefore, our curriculum is designed to be language-rich and diverse, tailored to the unique needs of each child while remaining adaptable to accommodate varying learning paces.

Through a blend of engaging activities, interactive learning experiences, and personalised support, we aim to create an inclusive environment where every pupil can flourish and reach their full potential. By integrating this ethos into our English curriculum, we are supporting our pupils to excel academically and thrive as confident and articulate individuals in an ever-evolving world.
