At St. Andrew’s we believe that English is at the heart of everything that we do from chatting to our friends in the playground to writing a letter to the Prime Minister. It permeates every aspect of our children’s lives and enables a child to learn in other subject areas and throughout their life.

At St. Andrew’s, we strive to provide the children with the necessary tools to be able to communicate effectively and creatively through spoken and written language. We ensure our children have access to high quality reading materials which excite our young readers and authors in the making. Literature is a treasure trove of ideas waiting to be unlocked and we ignite our children’s imaginations and creativity through a wide genre of texts.
