Writing

Intent

At Wheeler, we aim to teach pupils to write fluently so that they can communicate their ideas effectively. Pupils should be able to write clearly, accurately and coherently, adapting their language and style in a range of contexts, purposes and audiences.

We believe that children need to develop secure foundations in writing which follow a clear pathway of progression as they advance through the primary curriculum. We believe that a secure foundation of literacy skills is crucial to a high-quality education and that this will provide our children with the tools they need to participate fully as a member of society. We strive to equip pupils with the automaticity needed to write effectively across a variety of purposes and for a range of different audiences. Pupils discuss and refine their ideas through oral rehearsal and speaking and listening activities. Using accurate transcription and compositional skills, written pieces will be clear, fluent and engaging. Pupils will edit and improve their work, taking pride and care in producing high quality final drafts. Through the use of adventurous vocabulary, varied sentence structure, careful planning and imaginative flair, pupils’ writing will aim to engross and enthral the reader.
