In Foundation 2 (Reception classes) children cover Phase 2 activities when they begin school. All of the children from both classes are put into different phonics groups, according to their phonics knowledge. They then move through the Letters and Sounds phases at a pace that matches their needs.
When children can confidently read 18-20 words from the phase 2 sets of words they are given a reading book to take home to share with their parents. These books are selected from a range we have built up over time. We have drawn on a variety of publishers to ensure our selection is broad and caters for readers of different abilities within each colour band.
Our banding system is linked to the Letters and Sounds phases.
