Reading into Writing
Every great writer began as a great reader. At Coleshill our mission is to see children inspired by the wonderful world of literacy and in time become writers that reflect their passion for reading.
We use the National Curriculum to guide progression in skills over time so that when our children leave us in Year 6, they are ready for the next step in their education at secondary school.
