Listening Content and Learning Standards The thinking behind the Primary Listening Content and Learning Standards
The Primary Listening Content Standards focus on learners’ ability to recognise individual sounds, to understand meaning, and to use strategies to help their listening. The Learning Standards move from learners being able to understand globally to being able to understand details.
The order in which the Content and Learning standards appear does not reflect a chronological sequence of classroom learning which starts with 1.1.1 and finishes with 1.3.1. Children need to develop these skills simultaneously over the school year, and so will learn from opportunities to practise different listening skills in varied sequences in their English lessons.

Speaking Content and Learning Standards The thinking behind the Primary Speaking Content and Learning Standards
The Primary Speaking Content Standards focus on the learner’s ability to communicate to others, their ability to use strategies when interacting with others, and their ability to communicate alone to a group. We have called interacting with others Spoken Interaction, and speaking alone to a group Spoken Production. Most learning standards focus on spoken interaction, as we think that this is a learner’s main need in Primary School.
The order in which the Content and Learning Standards appear does not reflect a chronological sequence of classroom learning which starts with 2.1.1 and finishes with 2.3.1. Learners need to develop these skills simultaneously over the school year, and so will learn from opportunities to practise different speaking skills in varied sequences in their English lessons.

Reading Content and Learning Standards The thinking behind the Primary Reading Content and Learning Standards
The Primary Reading Content Standards focus on learners’ ability to learn to read (3.1), to understand meaning (3.2), and to read independently for enjoyment (3.3). Some Year 1 Primary children will be preliterate, and some not. We have therefore included separate learning to read Learning Standards for these children. Learning Standards for understanding meaning move from children being able to understand globally to being able to understand details
Preliterate children need to learn to read before they can focus on other Learning Standards. However, the order in which the other Content and Learning Standards appear does not reflect a chronological sequence of classroom learning which starts with 3.1.1 and finishes with 3.3.1. Learners need to develop these skills simultaneously over the school year, and so will learn from opportunities to practise different reading skills in varied sequences in their English lessons.

Writing Content and Learning Standards The thinking behind the Primary Writing Content and Learning Standards
The Primary Writing Content Standards focus on learners’ ability to learn to write (4.1), to communicate meaning (4.2), and to use appropriate mechanical features of writing (4.3). Some Year 1 Primary School children will be preliterate, and some not. We have therefore included separate learning to write Learning Standards for these children.
Learning Standards for communicating meaning move from children being able to communicate information, to describing people and things, to being able to organise what they write.
Preliterate children need to learn to write before they can focus on other learning standards. However, the order in which the other Content and Learning Standards appear does not reflect a chronological sequence of classroom learning which starts with 4.1.1 and finishes with 4.3.3. Children need to develop these skills simultaneously over the school year, and so will learn from chances to practise different writing skills in varied sequences in their English lessons.
