Early Writing

The documents below have played a key role in shaping and developing our Early Writing Curriculum and Writing Policy, at Waddington All Saints.

The principles and recommendations set out in the EYFS Statutory Framework and The Writing Framework: Writing in Reception have helped to shape our approach to teaching early writing. These documents ensure that our curriculum is rooted in statutory requirements and evidence-informed practice, enabling children to develop a secure foundation in transcription, composition, language development and a love of writing from the very beginning of their school journey.
