At Ospringe, we are proud to be a Talk for Writing school, where children learn to become confident and creative writers through a carefully planned journey. In the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and Year 1, we use Drawing Club and Curiosity Quest to spark imagination, develop vocabulary, and build a love of storytelling. These approaches allow children to explore exciting worlds, ask big questions, and create their own ideas through play, talk, and drawing. As children move through the school, they build on these foundations using the Talk for Writing approach, learning to internalise language patterns, plan their writing, and craft pieces that are full of detail and imagination. Our aim is for every child to see themselves as an author, developing both the skills and the joy of writing.
