English

At Knights Enham Schools we provide…

Inclusive and ambitious learning experiences where our school community feels safe and motivated to achieve their best.

‘Together We Achieve’

English is at the heart of all children’s learning. The ability to communicate clearly and read confidently is essential for success in education and an important life skill. We want the children at Knights Enham School to see themselves as lifelong readers and writers. 

We recognise their entitlement to high-quality teaching which will: 

  • Develop a love of reading that will last beyond school. 

  • Equip children with effective comprehension skills. 

  • Teach children to become assured writers, who can apply their skills in all types of writing.

  • Ensure children can use correct spelling, grammar, and punctuation to communicate clearly. 

  • Help children to speak confidently, express their viewpoints clearly, and listen to the viewpoints of others
