English Learning

Bring this exciting subject to life for your students with our rich and varied content types created to inspire learning, mastery, and creativity.

EducationCity’s English resources cover the full curriculum and are great to use for lesson planning, homework, in-class learning, and much more.

Reading and Writing for EYFS

We have various resources for early years that cover elements of reading and writing. They build students’ understanding through simple sentences, demonstrating understanding when talking to others, and using phonics knowledge to write words in ways that match their spoken sounds.

Communication and Language

Our resources cover all areas of communication and language, perceptively, socially, and linguistically, so students can gain the early skills they need to express themselves effectively and develop their own narratives.

Word Reading

We have a number of resources to support word reading, so children can develop their knowledge of words and texts, gain confidence in reading them aloud and decipher or examine any new words that they may meet to achieve a better understanding.

English Assessments

Familiarise your students with testing and encourage practice before any tests occur with our English assessments, which cover reading comprehension, and spelling, and punctuation, and grammar for each year group through our worksheets and literacy games.

Once marked by the system, revision Journals are also generated for grammar and punctuation assessments, so your students have prescribed resources to revise with and improve on their areas of weakness.

Phonics

Aiming to boost phonetical understanding from the earliest age using literacy games , our phonics area uses images from environments familiar to students so younger children can relate and transfer the literacy and language skills they acquire to their everyday lives.

SPaG Resources

From understanding punctuation marks and homophones, to identifying prepositions and spelling polysyllabic words, it’s all here.

We love EducationCity! Last year saw my class phonics screening results improve dramatically through EducationCity. The letters and sounds games were used during phonics teaching, and lessons to practice taught graphemes. The children love the games, and the engagement during whole-class teaching is 100%.”
