Summarise the relevant policy and age-related expectations of learners relevant to literacy development in the setting
I work within a primary school in Year 2, which is Key Stage 1 of the National Curriculum.

These skills will help pupils to express themselves creatively and increase their confidence.

Literacy means the ability to read and write. The term ‘literacy’ has only recently been applied as the definitive term for reading and writing, especially since the introduction of The National Literacy Strategy in schools. In October 2006, the Primary Framework for Literacy replaced The National Literacy Strategy Framework for Teaching....
