Our vision for English is:

• To engender a life-long love for the English language in its written and spoken forms.
• To encourage children to develop the ability to communicate ideas, views and feelings confidently and effectively and express themselves creatively and imaginatively through spoken language and writing, for a range of purposes .
• to listen with understanding, and to be enthusiastic and critical, knowledgeable readers of stories, poetry and drama, aswell as non-fiction and media texts which engage and inspire
• to provide a whole school environment which promotes language development, which is stimulating and characterised by high expectations of success for every child.
