English
Intent
Our English provision aims to inspire learners to develop an appreciation of the world’s literary heritage and develop a life long habit of reading.
The subject of English aims to develop students’ strategies in order for them to decipher language from today and the past.
Through finely targeted lessons, students’ writing skills will be developed and they will be able to recognise and use form, structure and literary devices in their written responses.
In order for all students to be able to access the English curriculum, discussion and debate are fully encouraged as are active listening skills.
