Spelling

Spelling is taught through an investigative approach using our new scheme devised by the amazing Jane Considine, where rules and statutory words are introduced and explored. We hope to foster a love of words, so children are inspired to always search for the best vocabulary choices to improve the quality of their writing. We also see spelling as a problem-solving process; a mission to remember spellings for life.
