Handwriting

Handwriting remains an important life skill as a tool for learning, self-expression, and communicating language. We recognise that children’s ability to handwrite effectively for the rest of their lives depends on the firm foundations established in primary school. We use the National Handwriting Association’s 8 S Factors  which are vital in facilitating legible, comfortable and fluent handwriting. This is linked directly to age appropriate and current curriculum descriptors from nursery through to Year 6.
