Phonics Screening Check

Find a starting point for phonics instruction

The Phonics Screening Check helps teachers understand students’ phonics knowledge at the start of a year or term.

The screening check provides a clear snapshot of each student’s current decoding skills, making it ideal for use as an initial assessment. It identifies which parts of the phonics code are secure and where further teaching may be needed. While primarily designed as a starting point, the check can also be reused to monitor progress over time. Clear, practical results support confident planning and targeted instruction from day one.
