National Assessments: Phonics Screening Check
​
The check usually takes place in June when children are in Year 1. Due to the Covid-19 outbreak, this will take place in the autumn term of Year 2 this academic year.
​
For this assessment, children will read 40 words out loud to a teacher. Parents will find out how their child did before the end of the summer term.
​
If your child does not achieve the pass score, they will re-sit the assessment near the end of Year 2.
