Rapid Phonics Parent Meeting Tuesday 27th September Aims: To have an understanding of the Rapid Phonics intervention

What is Rapid Phonics? Main aim is to teach children how to read and spell well. Created by an Educational Psychologist - Research highlighted how crucial it is that children who struggle are identified early and receive the best extra teaching possible. Rapid Phonics is designed to support children as soon as any problems with their phonics learning are observed. It is fun, multi-sensory and engaging. At the core are Snappy Lesson plans. The lessons are fast-paced and interactive, which keeps vulnerable groups of children motivated and focused. Simple assessments are used to monitor progress Decodable reading books build confidence and fluency

Assessment/ Monitoring progress The children have been assessed before starting the programme, so the programme is tailored to their gaps of learning. Monitoring: The children will be re-assessed every half-term (every 5-6 weeks)
