Rocket Phonics, DfE approved SSP programme

Written by expert, consultant and author Abigail Steel, Reading Planet Rocket Phonics is available now Reception – Year 2.  We approach phonics differently, so every child keeps up and not catches up.

The DfE has announced additional funding for schools to support the purchasing and implementation of a DfE approved phonics programme. Eligible schools can use funding towards the cost of Rocket Phonics resources and CPD training. To learn more, make a enquiry with your local Consultant here
