FAQs

FAQ asking if ready for reading training is the same as letters and sounds phase 1 training

No! But there are some similarities!

Letters and Sounds Phase 1 (2007) was the starting point for Ready For Reading Live, but we’ve learnt so much more about teaching and learning since then.

This training uses the most up-to-date brain-based theory and understanding of how children learn.

The games are brand new, and the progression of teaching provides a unique framework that’s super successful.

Yes!

Early Years Inspectors are looking for high levels of expertise in language and literacy.

Ready For Reading applies EYFS principles of engagement, fun, and playful learning to develop vital knowledge and skills across all aspects of prephonic development.

No! Everyone’s Welcome!

Although the practical and hands-on element of the training uses stories, songs, and games featured in Super Sounds, this is not a requirement.

If you’re looking for an improved understanding of how children develop prephonic skills, or where gaps in prephonic development can lead to struggles later on, Ready for Reading is for you.

Yes!

Ready For Reading provides the underpinning knowledge and practical application required to prepare children for any phonics programme.
