Review the Year 1 Phonics Screening Check scoring guidance

Petition Details

We want the Government to review the scoring guidance for the Year 1 Phonics Screening Check. We think it needs to be made clearer to those administering the check what constitutes an acceptable alternative phoneme for children to use when reading pseudo words.

Additional Information

We think there are inconsistencies in marking the check which could mean the difference between a child passing or not. i.e. can they use a long vowel sound for a single vowel letters in a non-word?


If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
