It expected that there will be a need for more Phonics intervention in Year 2 than usual and, in order to have the greatest impact on Reading attainment across school, the Head Teacher and Senior Leaders have selected to focus upon Early Reading. Currently, the school use Floppy's Phonics.
The successful candidate will have recent experience of planning and delivering small group Phonics sessions and will be familiar with the curriculum for Reading in Early Years and KS1.
