Phonics
At Ashcott School we follow the guidance in the 'Letters and Sounds' document published by the DfE. To support this approach we use a variety of resources and materials which we feel work well with the children in our cohort. There are lots of resources and games on the Espresso website - click here (a log-in can be obtained from the school office if you don't already have one). Please read the handout from the parents' phonics evening.
Some useful websites for phonics:
