We love Little Wandle phonics!

Children are screened in phonics during Year 1. This is not a formal test, but an assessment used by the teacher to check that children are making sufficient progress in learning to read. It is not a stressful situation as it is done in class by the child’s teacher and similar to the phonics learning in class.

Children need to retake the test in Year 2 should they not pass in Year 1.
