SSP can be taught without decodables. Teach too many low frequency GPCs. Little Wandle teaches 45 GPCs that account for just 1.60% of phonically regular words in 1,500+ real books. Same with RWInc. Pupils spend too long on decodables instead of reading real books for pleasure.

Over 600 primary school children eagerly waited to see Her Majesty The Queen make her way to Bath Abbey for our Service of Celebration.

Her Majesty was given a posy from Robyn, a year 2 from Twerton Infant School and Maison, a year 4 from Castle Primary School.
