CLPE
At Forres Primary Academy, we use CLPE to implement our English lessons.
What is CLPE?
The Centre for Literacy in Primary Education is a UK based children's literacy charity working with primary schools.

How is CLPE implemented?
At Forres, we have carefully mapped out a range of texts from genres such as modern classics, poetry, reading for stamina, non-fiction, traditional tales and modern twists, narratives and picture books. We have ensured that each year group covers each type of text to give the children a range of authors. It also gives the children a chance to see themselves in the texts and reflect their realities.
