Phonics

Here at Bourne Westfield Primary Academy the children will be taught phonics through the RWInc. scheme.

Read Write Inc. – A guide for parents

Read Write Inc. is a popular phonics scheme. Like all phonics schemes, it teaches children the sounds in English, the letters that represent them, and how to form the letters when writing. Read Write Inc. Phonics includes reading books written using only the letters they have learnt at each level (and a small number of separately taught tricky words). The children will quickly feel confident and successful.

Here you can find lots of free resources to support your child’s learning.

Free eBooks | Videos | Set 1 resources | Set 2 resources | Set 3 resources | Kits and flashcards to use at home 

Year 1 children (and Year 2 children who didn't pass in Year 1)  will complete the Phonics Screen Check in June.
