Reading

At Robin Hood Primary School, we ensure that the teaching of English (Reading and Writing) is at the core of our curriculum. We believe that every child should have access to an ambitious and rewarding reading curriculum. As a school we value that reading is a key life skill and we are dedicated to enabling our pupils to become lifelong readers. We are proud of our unique, carefully thought out, purposeful Reading Spines and current work on our Wider Curriculum Reading Spines where children access ambitious, current, exciting and interesting texts. Please see the tab below to access our current whole school reading spine which is reviewed and amended by all teaching staff yearly

We understand:

  • That children need both good language comprehension and good word reading to become good readers.
  • The importance of reading and how an in-built love of reading can impact a child’s future in a positive way.
  • That success in reading increases the range of work and life opportunities a child will access (The Reading Framework July 2021). Both progress academically and emotionally is seen as important as each other. Reading skills are not only vital for academic success but also support the development of a child’s emotional well- being. 

 

‘Children who are engaged with reading and writing are three times more likely to have high mental wellbeing than children who aren’t’.
