Home reading scheme

We follow the Oxford Reading Tree and TreeTops reading schemes, ensuring that we are providing the very best for every child. Pupils enjoy these books, which provide a lot more variety to ensure that all needs are met. Each child’s reading level has been carefully decided by the class teacher, who will continually monitor to ensure every child is making the best progress they can. We hope you enjoy sharing these books with your child! In school we also have a wide range of other books to ensure that your child is being given every opportunity to read as widely as possible. Every classroom has its own library, where the books are levelled to match individual needs. Children bring home a class library book, as well as their decodable (‘scheme’) reader every night.  Our younger readers will bring home their ‘Read, Write, Inc.’ books to continue practising concepts they learn in phonics lessons.   Some of the other schemes we have in school are:

  • Read, Write, Inc.
  • Bug Club
  • Ginn Pocket books
  • Ginn 360
  • A wide range of colour banded books
