We do not send home weekly spellings to learn as we know that this had little impact on improving our learners' spelling skills.   Often success in weekly spelling tests did not translate into improved spelling in work and caused a lot of anxiety for parents and learners.  Instead, we will teach spelling conventions regularly in school and revise these daily. 

To support your child develop their spelling, please practise the common exception words below and make regular use of Doodle Spell to practise this key skill.
