English
The National Curriculum separates the teaching of English into the following main areas: Speaking and Listening, Reading and Writing. At Lady Evelyn Independent School we recognise that these areas inform each other and should not be taught in isolation but as part of a coherent course. This creates an engaging curriculum and supports learning, whilst incorporating the National Literacy Strategy for English.
Students follow units of work on a theme, which will develop all of their English skills. These are then assessed in terms of the main areas listed above. Literature will be studied alongside and, where appropriate, as part of each unit of work.
Whenever possible the students’ work will be designed for a wider audience than simply the teacher; publication and display are seen as being crucial to developing good writers.
