To support the National Curriculum for English from Year 2, we follow Pathways to Write, which is a text based approach. The programme focusses on mastering the English skills and allowing the teachers freedom to plan for quality cross curricular writing whilst embedding the skills needed to be not only confident, but creative writers.
