Our Writing Curriculum at St Bede's 

As a school we aim to help all children develop into confident and successful writers. Across school we use Oak Academy to support progressive teaching and learning in writing. Through careful planning we ensure that children access a range of different writing genres and have opportunities to practise, apply and extend their writing skills as they move through school.

The Writing Process 

At St Bede's we believe for children to be successful in writing they must follow a four step process to create a piece of writing. Therefore we ensure that every unit of work within writing follows this process. Alongside this children access daily phonics, spelling, SPAG and handwriting work to ensure they have good underlying skills to enable them to write well.
