English Subject Leader
Mrs Sarah Cresswell
The teaching of English develops the children’s ability to communicate effectively - to listen, speak, read and write for a wide range of purposes. Children gain an understanding of how language works by looking at its patterns, structures and origins and use their knowledge, skills and understanding across a range of different situations.
1. To enable children to use and understand English as speakers, readers and writers
2. To encourage children to be competent, confident and independent in the use of English
3. To develop children’s awareness of different audiences and purposes for speaking, reading and writing
4. To enable children to use the English language in all areas of the curriculum
5. To encourage excellence in the subject
6. To support any child experiencing difficulty learning, so that barriers to learning can be overcome.
By the time they leave Hasland Infant School, most children are able to express themselves clearly, creatively and imaginatively as writers, become enthusiastic and critical readers of stories, poetry, drama, non-fiction and media texts.
