Pauline, I think you'd find Peter Warner's website interesting and useful. He's an English teacher in Japan.

Absolutely agree about the Simple View of Reading, Debbie. It's been ignored and subverted by many in the teaching profession. Back to the Phil Beadle TV series, I have a lot of time for PB. He highlighted the fact that there is virtually no effective teaching of the decoding basics for non-readers ...

I remember the Phil Beadle programmes. I would describe him as using a self-devised phonics programme with the adults. I think he took advice from Jolly Phonics and Ruth Miskin (not experts on adult literacy interventions), but his main advice came from 'dyslexia specialists' -and we now know the so...

Congratulations Debbie! This has been long awaited.

Debbie, Please would you comment on 'independent writing', where little ones who have been taught a basic code are then encouraged to write stories, diaries etc. using phonic spellings -i.e. their writing is readable but the spellings aren't necessarily correct as they only have only learnt one way ...
