@buckingham_j @SusanGodsland @SWLiteracy @c_mackechnie I read it as a note of caution on abandoning phonics at the end of y1, which I think is common. I think there’s a lack of awareness of what’s still left to do. There’s still a need for children to be taught to spell with phonics not just a gap for teaching etymology & morphology.

@buckingham_j @SusanGodsland @c_mackechnie You're right in saying 'it’s designed to assess decoding at one point in time and reflects reasonable expectations for that point.' However, our expectations are that by the end of Year 1 - when it's taken in England - chn will be able to decode words of 2, 3 & even 4 syllables

''The Phonics Screening Check includes only four 2-syllable words – 80% of the English language is polysyllabic. Children need to be taught to deal with 2-6 syllable words through phonics teaching in KS1+'' Charlotte MacKechnie @c_mackechnie

"We do not make schooling compulsory for all 5 year olds just to extend their experience - we want their schooling to give them access to knowledge that takes them beyond that experience in ways they and their parents can trust and value." (Young et al., 2014)

I don’t love the phrase “Reading Wars” because war devastates individuals and society… but sometimes I think it is actually the right phrase, because the lives of individual children and further generations’ quality of life hang in the balance. I don’t think that’s hyperbole.
