English Intent

Language, in both spoken and written forms, is a hugely powerful means of expression which enables us to inform, analyse, entertain, persuade, debate and communicate. Our intention is to develop the capacity for each child to use and manipulate English to the best of his or her ability by providing them with age-appropriate knowledge and skills in relation to vocabulary, sentence construction, punctuation, writing genres, reading and oration which will equip and prepare them for life in high school and beyond.
