English at St. Kenelm’s C.E Primary School

We are committed to developing English skills through uniting the important skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening through an engaging curriculum. We believe that developing a good literacy understanding is a fundamental life skill.

 At St. Kenelm’s we know that English, including Spoken Language and Reading, is the key to learning. We promote these skills through every aspect of our curriculum.
