SPELLING, PUNCTUATION AND GRAMMAR SUPPORT
The National Curriculum has much more emphasis on pupils having a good understanding of the English language; a high standard of spelling, punctuation and grammar (SPaG) will enable every pupil to use the English language well when writing and understand texts more when reading.
The links below also provide explanations of some of the terminology used during the teaching of SPaG.
