English
At Redfield Educate Together we aim to empower our children as readers and authors, anchoring our learning in high-quality and diverse texts. Our reading and writing learning is purposeful and engaging, rooted in our school values of community, compassion, courage and curiosity.
Children develop their ability to listen, speak, read and write for a wide range of purposes, including the communication of their ideas, views and feelings. They are encouraged equipped to express themselves creatively and imaginatively, as they become enthusiastic and critical readers of stories, poetry and non-fiction texts.
It should provide opportunities for all pupils, regardless of their age, gender, ethnicity, attainment and background. Quality texts are chosen to reflect our diverse community including characters and plots from all backgrounds and abilities.
