At Blackbrook School, we believe that early reading is pivotal within a child's educational journey. Developing strong reading skills at a young age sets the foundation for lifelong learning, critical thinking, and academic success. We prioritise early reading by incorporating engaging, age-appropriate literature into our curriculum, fostering a love for books, and creating a supportive environment where every child can thrive. Our dedicated staff work closely with pupils to ensure they develop the confidence and skills needed to become proficient readers, empowering them to explore new worlds and ideas through the power of words.

We teach early reading skills using the Read Write Inc. phonics programme.
