Phonics Screening Check

The phonics screening check assesses children on how well they can decode certain words. Decoding means sounding out an unfamiliar written word. To do this, children will need to be able to recognise letters and the sounds that they represent. We use the Sounds Write phonics programme to teach phonics.

Further information about the phonics screening check and our phonics scheme can be found using the links below.
