English

At High Wycombe Primary School our English program is based on the W.A. Curriculum and focuses on developing each student's knowledge, understanding and skills in listening, reading, viewing, speaking and writing.

We are committed to a whole school approach to the teaching of English and the utilisation of a targeted pedagogical approach, incorporating a range of evidence based programs is our priority.

Programs used at HWPS include:

• Guided, modelled and shared reading
• Home reading K-6
• Diana Rigg spelling
• Seven Steps Writing
• Brightpath Writing
• Writing Revolution

Literacy is a priority in our school and is highlighted through a variety of special events such as Book Week and the P&C Book Fair.
