The programmes of study for writing at key stages 1 and 2 are constructed similarly to those for reading: It is essential that teaching develops pupils competence in these 2 dimensions. As their decoding skills become increasingly secure, teaching should be directed more towards developing their vocabulary and the breadth and depth of their reading, making sure that they become independent, fluent and enthusiastic readers who read widely and frequently.
