Ofsted has published its latest subject research review, this time on English.

Ofsted has published its latest subject research review, this time on English. There is also a handy summary too. Aspects of effective practice highlighted in the report include:

  • strong foundational knowledge for reading, writing and spoken language as essential aspects of the early years curriculum
  • developing vocabulary is fundamental to pupils’ progress and narrows the word gap between pupils who are word-rich and word-poor
  • an effective reading curriculum ensures that pupils read large amounts of text and focuses on providing pupils with the knowledge they need for comprehension
  • a reading curriculum incorporating carefully chosen texts of increasing challenge
  • the English curriculum for novices, who are likely to learn more effectively through direct instruction, is structured differently in many aspects from the curriculum for experts

 

Ofsted has now published ten subject research reviews and you can view the full list here.
