Read Write Inc., developed by Ruth Miskin, provides a structured and systematic approach to teaching literacy.

It is used by more than a quarter of the UK's primary schools and is designed

to create fluent readers,

confident speakers and willing writers.


Each Read Write Inc. programme meets

the higher expectations of

the National Curriculum

and uses effective assessment

to accelerate every child's progress

and prepare them for the end

of Key Stage National Curriculum Tests

and Year 1 Phonics Screening Assessment.


The implementation of Read Write Inc has led to a significant and rapid improvement in the school’s National Phonic Screening results.

The results improved by 23% in 2015/16.

Information for parents


Fast Track Read, Write Inc 1:1 Tutoring

Whitnash Primary School is keen to accelerate children's progress in reading,

using two core strategies:

Ensuring the teaching of phonics

is the best it can be.

This of course is the most efficient way to speed up progress for the majority of children.

We know that when Reading and Phonic lessons are of the highest standard,

the number of pupils who require

additional support reduces.

This is why our school is ensuring high-quality Read, Write Inc provision for all children

from Reception to the End of Year 2.

This is a daily part of our structured timetable

 and is proving to make a huge difference

to the confidence of all children

with their reading.

Providing targeted support.

Even with the best teaching, a proportion of children need additional help and support.

This is particularly the case if they have missed time off school,

need support to concentrate in a group,

or have identified learning needs.

Fast Track Read, Write Inc 1:1 Tutoring

is used at Whitnash to provide this

targeted support where needed.

It is aimed at children who are making

the least progress,

or for children with an identified

Special Educational Need,

with the wider

Read, Write Inc programme.

It provides an opportunity

for extra daily practice

in reading sounds and words for

children 1:1 or in a very small group.

We know that children make rapid progress when they have individual support from an enthusiastic and well-trained adult.

That is why all of our school's

Teaching Assistants are fully trained in the delivery of Fast Track Read, Write Inc 1:1.
