Quality of Education at Ley Top

We made the decision to redesign our English curriculum in order to be able to develop our children’s reading and writing skills to their full potential. At Ley Top, we have separate reading and writing lessons to enable teachers and children to have the time to focus on learning, practising and applying skills. This ensures that our children have the necessary depth of knowledge required to be confident readers and writers for life. Our teachers ensure that they meet the needs of their children so that lessons can be accessed and enjoyed by all.
