Are your PSC results below national average? 

Do you require additional resources to teach your chosen SSP with fidelity? 

Do you have members of staff who have not received training in your SSP? (Or maybe you will in September!)

If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions then we can help!

At Flying High English Hub, we can provide you with up to 12 days of support from a Literacy Specialist over 2 years to develop the teaching of phonics in your school and up to £6000 of funding to purchase additional resources related to your chosen SSP including decodable reading books and subscription to an online portal.

To find out how you can access this FREE support and funding, come along to our Partner School Recruitment event on April 24th.

We are particularly interested in hearing from schools who meet the following criteria:

  • Primary schools with lower-than-average PSC scores for disadvantaged pupils.
  • Primary schools where the lowest 20% of children are not on course to reach the expected standard (indicated through regular phonics assessment in school).
  • Primary schools with a lower-than-average percentage of pupils meeting the expected standard in the Phonics Screening Check (75% met the expected standard in 2022).
  • Primary schools with a higher-than-average proportion of children eligible for pupil premium (2022/23 the pupil premium national average is 24.3%).
  • Primary schools that sit in an EIAs and PEIAs.
  • Wave 1 and Wave 2 partner schools in PEIAs who have experienced significant systemic change since leaving the programme and who have failed to realise and/or maintain improvement in SSP scores.
  • Primary schools with a high proportion of groups considered hard to reach such as English as an Additional Language (EAL), Free School Meals (FSM) and travellers.
  • Schools referred by local partners (e.g. National Leaders in Education (NLEs), Regional Schools Commissioners (RSCs) , Local Authorities (LAs).
  • Primary schools where standards in phonics are identified as areas for development through Ofsted inspection findings.
  • Primary schools where there is a risk of declining standards in phonics.
