3 English The overarching aim for English in the National Curriculum is to promote high standards of language and literacy by equipping pupils with a strong command of the spoken and written word, and to develop their love of literature through widespread reading for enjoyment.

4 English: Key Stage One-Faster, fuller, deeper. Writing: o Increased challenge, including developing “stamina” for writing o Longer compositions and proof-reading of own writing; o Increased focus on composition, structure and convention; o Deeper focus on learning grammar and punctuation;  Joined writing expected in Year 2. Reading:  Emphasis on reading widely for pleasure, re-reading books and reading aloud;  Increased focus on engaging with and interpreting texts;  Learning of poetry (including reciting poetry) introduced. Spelling:  Specific spellings, e.g. days of the week, prefixes & suffixes;  Pupils expected to write sentences dictated by the teacher. English: Key Stage One-Faster, fuller, deeper.

5 English: Key Stage Two-Faster, fuller, deeper. Writing:  Greatly increased expectations in grammar and punctuation;  Children have to identify and label complex grammatical concepts, punctuation and spelling rules;  Expectation that children expertly use and apply the grammar and punctuation concepts in independent writing to create specific effects; Reading:  Read for pleasure;  Word reading: pupils applying their knowledge to understand the meaning of new words;  Learning of classic & modern poetry (including reciting poetry) introduced. Spelling:  Statutory lists of words to be learnt in Years 3 - 6;  Specific spelling rules to be taught. English: Key Stage Two-Faster, fuller, deeper.

8 New End of Key Stage SATs KS1  Reading paper  Grammar, spelling and punctuation (new)  Maths paper  No writing paper  Marked, moderated and assessed within schools Key Stage Two ready KS1  Reading paper  Grammar, spelling and punctuation (new)  Maths paper  No writing paper  Marked, moderated and assessed within schools Key Stage Two ready KS2  Reading Paper  Grammar, spelling and punctuation  Maths paper: 1)Arithmetic 2 & 3) Reasoning  Marked externally Secondary school ready KS2  Reading Paper  Grammar, spelling and punctuation  Maths paper: 1)Arithmetic 2 & 3) Reasoning  Marked externally Secondary school ready

9 How have we addressed new changes?  Changed how we teach the curriculum-more time on objectives and taught in greater depth  Children are now taught in year groups: two Maths classes per year, two English classes per year and in KS2, two RE classes per year  Aim is for all children to be secure within their year group by the end of the year  Rigorous intervention to close gaps  New tracking system  New Marking policy  Changed how we teach the curriculum-more time on objectives and taught in greater depth  Children are now taught in year groups: two Maths classes per year, two English classes per year and in KS2, two RE classes per year  Aim is for all children to be secure within their year group by the end of the year  Rigorous intervention to close gaps  New tracking system  New Marking policy

11 No more levels! Age Related Standards Levels: 1c 1b 1a 2c 2b 2a 3c 3b 3a 4c 4b 4a 5c 5b 5a 6c Age Related Standards Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Year 6

12 Assessment at SMQOM Beginning (B) Children are beginning to develop within their year group objectives and have achieved some knowledge of key facts. Beginning + (B+) As above and have achieved more objectives. Developing (D) Children are securing knowledge of key facts within their year group and are starting to apply these. They are developing a deeper understanding. Developing + (D+) As above and have achieved more objectives. Secure (S) Children have mastered most/all objectives within their year group. Secure + (S+) Children have exceeded their end of year expectations as they have gained skills which they can apply to a range of contexts independently.
