In 2012 the Government introduced the Year 1 Phonics screening.
What is the phonics screening check?
The phonics screening check is a quick check of your child’s ability to decode words using his or her phonics knowledge. It helps us to confirm whether your child has met the expected standard for a child at the end of Year 1.
The check is a statutory requirement for all children in Year 1 and takes place each year in the summer term. Children who did not take the check in Year 1, or who did not meet the expected standard, will take the check again at the end of Year 2.
How does the check work?
