The new 2014 national curriculum places great emphasis on grammar and punctuation. At our school, grammar is taught as a thread within all writing lessons. Our grammar focus is introduced at the start of the lesson, and there is then an opportunity for them to use and apply this during their independent work.
Each year group follows a grammar overview that starts at understanding basic terminology, including nouns and verbs, and continues through applying and using more complex grammar forms, including passive and active voice.
