Writing

We follow the HFL Essential writing scheme. Essential writing is built on the foundations of an understanding of purpose and audience, enabling children to focus on the language choices that will underpin their ability to write effectively. Each writing unit is based on high-quality literature that is expertly pitched to study the craft of writing and/ or to inspire high quality writing outcomes.  Each lesson is designed to build on the last and each unit fits into a sequential overview that gradually introduces grammar, spelling and composition skills. The units are carefully designed to build children’s vocabulary and oracy and provide suggested written and verbal model.

All Saints Catholic Academy Trust (ASCAT)

Formed in 2016, as part of the Diocese of Westminster's Academy Strategy, we provide a collaborative structure of school support and innovation for Catholic schools in South West Hertfordshire. Our vision of an 'Outstanding Education for All' comes from this desire to enable all members of school communities to flourish and succeed and to do all that we can to make our schools places where ambition for all is at the heart of everything that we do.
