Reading

Our English curriculum at St Michael at Bowes CE (SMAB) develops a range of skills, with our aim to teach pupils to be linguistically confident and access all opportunities available to them. We teach Reading at SMAB in order to foster a love of reading and to ensure that all children become confident and enthusiastic readers. Language is vitally important and the Writing and Reading Subject Leads are continually focusing on closing the ‘word gap’.
