Reading At St Joseph’s 
 
Learning to read is one of the most important things your child will learn at our school. Everything else depends on it, so we put as much energy as we possibly can into making sure that every single child learns to read as quickly as possible. We want your child to love reading – and to want to read for themselves. This is why we put our efforts into making sure they develop a love of books as well as simply learning to read.

Reading skills build upon one another. The document below outlines the key skills in reading for each year group from Year 1-6.
