ESSENTIALSPELLING can be used as a scheme for spelling on its own or in conjunction with a school’s existing scheme. It has been tried and tested in English primary schools for over 5 years with great results. Vocabulary development is woven in throughout and teachers are guided to explicitly teach the spelling patterns through phonics, morphology and etymology.
Our complete teaching resource features a suite of teaching sequences for each year group for the academic year. Sequences have been ordered progressively to review and consolidate prior learning before moving on children’s spelling knowledge and application. There are approximately 30 week-long sequences in each of the KS2 resources and 93 shorter sequences in the KS2 programme.
Pricing information:
- £90 per Y2 booklet
- £70 per booklet (years 3-6)
- £300 for the entire suite of 5 booklets

The scheme is clear, well laid out, rigorous and effective. I like the minor gaps and major gaps in order to target all children. The resource is time saving and clear with high level expectation.

We are really pleased to have found a strong, structured programme for teaching spelling. The planning is clear and easy to teach from and the resources have been useful in supporting learning. The detailed planning has given our teachers confidence to teach spelling effectively.
