Ruth Miskin  

We have been awarded with the 2018-2019 Ruth Miskin Training Accreditation Badge.

We are a “Get Reading. Keep Reading. Change Everything.” school.

We use the highly successful Read Write Inc. Phonics programme to teach our children to read, write and spell. Our children do well in the phonics screening check and by Year 2, the majority are fluent readers with the best chance of success in the KS1 tests.

Ruth Miskin Training recognise us for teaching the programme with fidelity and passion – we know what it takes to make reading and writing pleasurable and rewarding for our children.

This badge recognises that we:

  • Raise standards in reading and writing for our children
  • Are all expertly trained by Ruth Miskin Training – including our Principal, Mrs Wood
  • Gain the latest programme updates through regular visits from our Ruth Miskin Consultant Trainer
  • Support our most vulnerable readers with extra one-to-one teaching every day.

At our Academy, literacy skills are at the heart of everything we do. Mossbourne Riverside Academy is committed to raising standards in reading, writing and phonics. We strive for every child to be a fluent reader. We aim to deliver high quality synthetic phonics lessons through the Read Write Inc. programme. Pupils use their problem solving skills from early in their literacy learning to decode and later deduce themes from books. Our pupils are confident learners who develop their literacy skills through a range of independent and partner tasks as well as whole class discussions.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Literacy and Language scheme is taught to all pupils from Year 2 onwards, to ensure high quality lessons that cover a plethora of genres. Our teachers are committed to fostering a love for reading across the Academy, by teaching diverse and inspiring lessons that promote a love for books. We aim for each pupil to leave the Academy with a passion for reading and writing and with the confidence to apply their skills in order to fulfil their aspirations. Pupils are encouraged to discover the value of strong communication and the importance of reading and writing in all aspects of their futures.
