Reading and writing boost to drive high and rising standards

Reading and writing boost to drive high and rising standards

06 February 2025  

Thousands of pupils across England are set to benefit from a GBP2 million investment to drive high and rising standards in reading and writing, building on the Education Secretary's plan for a new era of school standards.  

In her speech to the Centre of Social Justice (Monday 03 February), the Education Secretary outlined how the success of phonics delivered for millions of children but now was the time to build on this work with a new focus on reading and writing.  

Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson said:  

This government will build on the successes of recent decades, raising the bar when it comes to standards and delivering on our Plan for Change, breaking the link between background and success.  

Reading and writing are the cornerstones of learning. They hold the keys to the rest of the curriculum, with pupils who struggle to read so often struggling across the board.   

So while progress has been made - in particular when it comes to phonics - now is the time to take that work to another level.  

That means continuing to drive up quality of teaching, giving our brilliant teachers the tools and resources they need, and extending further support directly to the children and young people who need it most - because no child should leave school without a strong grasp of the basics.

The curriculum review, launched in July, will make sure all pupils benefit from a curriculum that delivers excellent foundations in reading, writing and maths to ensure they can develop the skills needed to succeed in work and life.   

The government has also committed to spearheading real-world primary maths teaching through evidence based progammes to ensure every child is given the foundations to develop lifelong numeracy skills.

These reforms follow plans set out by the Education Secretary this week reaffirming her commitment to high and rising standards in schools with an excellent teacher in every classroom, a high-quality curriculum for every school and a core offer of excellence for every parent so that every child can achieve and thrive.
