Phonics · Ages 3 to 5

Where letters find their sounds.

Reading starts with sounds. In our Phonics classes, children aged 3 to 5 learn to hear, say and recognise the sounds inside words, then watch letters come together into words they can read themselves. Small groups of up to 8 keep it personal and fun.

No prior reading ability is needed. Contact our team to confirm class suitability for your child.

What Children Build

The foundations under every reader

Phonics gives children the code that unlocks reading. We build it gently, sound by sound.

Sound recognition

Children learn to hear the separate sounds inside spoken words, the single strongest predictor of early reading.

Aa

Letter-sound awareness

Each letter gets its sound, so written words stop being mysterious shapes and start being readable.

Early reading confidence

The first time a child reads a word alone is a big moment. We build towards it step by step, and celebrate it.

Speaking and pronunciation

Clear sounds make clear speech. Phonics supports early English learning, speaking and listening too.

Blending: each sound takes its turn, then they join into a word your child can read.
