The Link
The Link is specifically designed as a literacy base to support individual pupils and small groups to improving their phonic, comprehension and overall language skills. There are various resources in the Link such as phonic and interactive games to engage pupils and to make language activities more accessible.
The Link also conducts individual assessments which are helpful in all the staff in tailoring the work for these pupils. Spelling and other language tests are done to determine starting points in the curriculum.
The link provides opportunities for individual projects in terms of pupil learning. The Link also provides support to individual teachers and departments, advising on reading books and literacy resources.
Miss Mulhall and Miss Simpson are the key link staff.
