English Vision 

At Hujjat Primary School we believe that a quality English curriculum should develop children’s love of speaking and listening, reading (using Little Wandle), and writing in a creative, broad and balanced curriculum. It should inspire and promote high standards of language and communication, developing vocabulary progression across all key stages and all subjects.  

How we learn English

We value our children interests and listen to their pupil voice to shape our English curriculum. This gives us flexibility in our teaching methods to plan and provide engaging lessons, whereby children are actively learning in a variety of exciting ways. We support children’s progress by providing positive feedback and clear next steps to support their development. We understand that children have many different learning styles and careful planning ensures that all of their needs are met so that they achieve success. 

How we deliver the Curriculum 

We follow the National Curriculum and model high standards of language by equipping pupils with a strong command of the spoken and written word, based on a rich curriculum and quality texts which appropriately challenges pupils. We aim to promote a positive attitude to English and develop a life-long love of language and communication by learning about literacy skills and progression of skills through high quality teaching, modelling and scaffolding at every opportunity.
