Early Reading and Reading at Malvern Parish

At Malvern Parish C of E Primary School, we believe that reading is central to a child’s understanding of the school curriculum and is a vital life skill. We believe this to be true, whatever their starting point. At Malvern Parish our vision is for all children and adults to become aware of their God-given gifts so they can flourish as individuals, achieve academically and build firm foundations for the future. We believe that being able to read confidently and fluently is key to this.
