At Holy Trinity, we follow Sounds-Write, a DfE-validated phonics programme that provides a highly effective and structured approach to teaching reading and spelling.

We chose Sounds-Write because it is evidence-based, systematic, and well-suited to supporting all children.

It focuses on developing strong foundational skills in phonemic awareness, decoding, and segmenting, helping children become confident, fluent readers from the very beginning.

By using a consistent and carefully planned approach, we ensure that every child is given the best possible start in their reading journey.
