Barry Primary & Nursery School

Reading

Here at Barry Primary School, we follow the DFE's Little Wandle’s Letters and Sounds Revised programme right from Nursery.  Our reading scheme has been carefully chosen to follow this programme.  It is called 'Collins Big Cat for Letters and Sounds'.

Your child will bring home books from the scheme which match their fluency level in Phonics.

Phonics – Little Wandle’s Letters and Sounds Revised

Little Wandle’s Letters and Sounds Revised is the programme we follow at Barry Primary School to support the principles and practice of high quality phonics.  Phonics lessons aim to teach the pronunciation of the pure sounds, which supports children learning how to read and write. For guidance on the teaching of Phonics at Barry Primary, please speak to staff or alternatively, visit the Little Wandle’s Letters and Sounds Revised parents tab on the website where you will find useful videos.
