  2. What is the Phonic Screening Check? The purpose of the phonic screening check will be to confirm that all children have learned phonic decoding to an age-appropriate standard. Age related expectation for end of Year 1 (end of Phase 5). Testing will take place nationally during the week of 8th June 2019. Our School Values Respect Teamwork Love of Learning Pride Tolerance

  3. How do we assess? The Check is completed on a 1:1 basis. Children have to read 20 words and 20 pseudo words. The pseudo words are represented with an alien. The Check is designed to assess whether children know their phonics and can decode words. Sample materials available for you to have a look at. All downloadable from https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/phonics-screening-check-sample-materials-and-training-video

  4. What will the check look like? The Check is divided into two sections (20 words each). Section 1 The words in section 1 will have a variety of simple word structures (for example CVC, VCC, CCVC and CVCC) using single letters (a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, I, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, q(u), r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z), some consonant digraphs (ch, ck, ff, ll, ng, sh, ss, th, zz) and frequent and consistent vowel digraphs (ar, ee, oi, oo, or). Section 2 The words in section 2 will have a variety of more complex word structures (for example CCVCC, CCCVC, CCCVCC and two syllable words) with some additional consonant digraphs (ph, wh), some less frequent and consistent vowel digraphs, including split digraphs (a-e, ai, au, aw, ay, ea, e-e, er, ew, i-e, ie, ir, oa, o-e, ou, ow, oy, ue, u-e, ur) and trigraphs (air, igh).

  5. How you can help? Read regularly. Support children with the segmenting and blending of words when they are stuck. Use sound mats to practise the sounds. Make flashcards, use magnetic letters on your fridge, use paint/crayons/chalk as means of practising. Encourage children to read anything! Practise reading and writing the tricky words – these will be sent home to you to practise. Make up words and ask your child to sound them out. Play Buried Treasure and Picnic on Pluto. (PhonicsPlay) – this can be searched through Google. Attend Family Phonic sessions on Monday and Wednesday mornings from 8:30am Our School Values Respect Teamwork Love of Learning Pride Tolerance

  6. Other Information Results will be reported as part of their summer report with either a reached the standard or not reached the standard. We do not and will not know the required standard will be until all the results have been submitted. Since the Check began in 2012, the required standard has been 32 out of 40 words. If your child does not reach the required standard, they will re-take the test in Year 2 having had a support programme put in place to support with phonic decoding skills. As part of assessment week each ½ term, your child is practising past papers, so they are already being exposed to the style of test.
