At Raynham, we teach phonics through Read Write Inc. (RWI), which is a systematic synthetic phonic teaching programme. We believe that every child has the right to be successful fluent readers and writers and that Phonics and Early Reading are the door to access lifelong learning. 

Read Write Inc. Phonics  is designed to be inclusive for all children – whatever their need.  

• The Online Assessment quickly identifies those children who need support and the exact support they need. 
• Children are taught at their challenge point in small groups and/or by one-to-one tutoring. 
• Our tutoring programme mirrors the incremental teaching steps used in the main programme, while ensuring teaching meets every child’s needs. 
• We follow the SEN Code of Practice and take a ‘graduated approach’ to working with pupils with SEND – assess, plan, do, review. 
• We make strong connections with the new sounds being taught. Practice and repetition then strengthen the memory.
