Phonics Check
What is the Phonics Screening Check?
Children in Year 1 throughout the country will all be taking part in a phonics screening check during the same week in June.
What Happens During the Screening?
The test contains 40 words. Each child will sit one to-one and read each word aloud to a teacher. The list of words the children read is a combination of 20 real words and 20 pseudo words (nonsense words).
Pseudo Words (Nonsense Words)
The pseudo words will be shown to your child with a picture of an alien. This provides the children with a context for the pseudo word which is independent from any existing vocabulary they may have. Pseudo words are included because they will be new to all pupils; they do not favour children with a good vocabulary knowledge or visual memory of words.
