What is Phonics Screening Test?

Each child in England takes phonics screening test in Year 1. The test helps teachers identify how the child is progressing in phonics and where they need more improvement. This test checks if the children can sound and blend graphemes and diagraphs along with decoding of one-syllable and two-syllable words.

The Phonics Screening test consists of real words and pseudo/alien words.  The pseudo-words are specially included in the test to check children phonics knowledge as sometimes children do memorize the real words.

How to prepare for Phonics Screening Test?

Firstly contact your child teacher and ask which areas he/she needs more help.
