ELIP Reading

Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Mr C. Bangs.

The ELIP Foundation programme includes six courses and students must take all courses plus PHE in years 9-11 and some mainstream options.

The aims of the reading course are to enable students to apply phonological knowledge when reading and writing, develop independence in “growing” their vocabulary, retrieve specific information from texts and develop independence in predicting and posing questions when they overview a text, enjoy reading independently, use the library more effectively.
