Statement of intent:

At Medlar with Wesham CE Primary School, we intend to create confident writers who develop stamina for writing throughout school. We aim for all our children to be independent writers, building on a range of skills as they work through each journey of reading into writing and for them to be able to write for a range of purposes and audiences. Throughout this journey, we ensure the children at Medlar with Wesham are immersed and excited by a range of genres and have a clear understanding of purpose. Our learners will have a secure understanding of the purpose of a text type, the intended impact of writing skills/tools and the ability to carefully select vocabulary with careful attention to the desired effect on the readers’ thoughts and feelings. Our learners are challenged and encouraged to take risks and view mistakes as part of the learning process. Our learners should always set high expectations for themselves where they take pride in all aspects of learning and in everything they produce.
