The government prioritizes systematic synthetic phonics as a key strategy in the teaching of reading and this text supports trainee teachers working towards primary QTS in how to use phonics effectively. The text begins by examining the central role of phonics in the teaching of reading, drawing on recent research and initiatives. It goes on to cover the essential subject knowledge for trainees to acquire themselves, and the teaching of phonics to children in separate sections.
