When students arrive in Wootton, we work to encourage exploration of English as a valuable subject in its own right, and also to prepare them for the transition to GCSE study and beyond. We also benefit from teaching the subject at a school that has put reading at the heart of everything, and the supporting processes in place to help every student become a fluent, confident and effective reader.
