Spelling

In Reception and Year 1 spelling is taught through Little Wandle. See phonics section for more information.  

Years 2-6 

The teaching of spelling at St. David’s Primary School for years 2-6 follows the ‘No Nonsense Spelling programme’. This is taught daily in years 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. The programme gives children the opportunity to learn a spelling pattern, practise it, apply it and revisit it. We constantly strive to create a variety of spelling activities, which are visual, auditory and engaging for the children. Our aim over time is to ensure our children become accomplished, proficient spellers. A key feature of how we teach spellings is by understanding children's spelling journey.

Along with learning the different spelling patterns, children are also required to read and spell the Common Exception/Statutory Words for their age-group.  You can find these words below!

 

Ventrus MAT

Ventrus (formerly The Primary Academies Trust) was set up in 2011 by a group of like minded headteachers who wanted to build a stable and secure platform from which they could grow a network of excellent schools.
