In EYFS, we focus our teaching of handwriting around the correct formation of letters and numbers.
In Year 1, pupils build on their knowledge of letter and number formation. In the Spring term pupils begin to explore entry and exit flicks to support joining their letters.
In Year 2, pupils are taught to form lower-case letters which are consistent in size in relation to the capital letters used and with consistent spacing between letters and between words. Throughout Y2, pupils will be taught some of the diagonal and horizontal strokes needed to join handwriting.
In Key Stage 2, pupils are expected to produce neat, legible, joined handwriting with increasing speed and accuracy.
