This package programme is aimed primarily at schools who use the synthetic systematic phonics programme - Red Rose Letters and Sounds in Reception and Year 1.

Please note - this package programme is also suitable for schools that use any phonics programme to implement effective spelling based on the National Curriculum for Year 2 and into Key Stage 2. See testimonials below from schools using a range of phonics programmes.

Following a hugely successful roll-out of the programme in 2023-2026, the Primary English and Literacy Team at Lancashire Professional Development Service are continuing to offer a comprehensive daily spelling programme based on the National Curriculum requirements for spelling in Year 2 alongside a CPD package. This planning programme has been developed, continuously evaluated and refined, using the expertise of phonics and spelling experts at LPDS, and feedback from Year 2 practitioners in schools that use any phonics programme.

The package cost is £445 and includes CPD for one full day and two half days, and the planning programme for one delegate.

SPECIAL OFFER! Sign up before the 1st September 2026 and this will include two delegates for the price of one!

The planning programme includes a yearly progression of the curriculum for Year 2 Spelling, half termly overviews, daily planning, word banks, and games and activities. Guidance for implementation is also included.

I absolutely love teaching Year 2 spelling now because the programme provides so much support and the children are highly motivated to engage with sessions every day. I can't believe the impact on writing too!

We use Read, Write, Inc as our phonics programme and joined the programme this year. The impact has been amazing for our Year 2 children. We are signing up for Red Rose Year 3 and Red Rose Year 4 Spelling for next year. Following this roll-out, we will be implementing Red Rose Year 5 into Year 6 Spelling too.

We use Bug Club phonics and have implemented Red Rose Year 2, Year 3 and Year 4 Spelling during the past year. We are looking forward to signing up for Red Rose Year 5 into Year e6 Spelling next year so we have a full-school approach for spelling. We would highly recommend the programmes as we have seen HUGE impact! In September 2026, we are also moving our phonics programme to Red Rose Letters and Sounds, which we have considered for a while - now is the right time!

Our school uses Supersonic Phonic Friends for phonics in Reception and Year 1 and we implemented Red Rose Year 2 Spelling in 2025-2026. We are delighted with the progression into Year 2 spelling. Our children are excited for spelling sessions and the impact on writing is great!

We implemented Little Wandle Phonics in 2022 and last year joined the Red Rose Spelling Programmes in Year 2, Year 3 and Year 4. The impact to date is fantastic! Next year, we are moving to Red Rose Letters and Sounds for Reception and Year 1, and signing up for Red Rose Year 5 into Year 6 Spelling Programmes so we have a consistent approach for phonics and spelling across the whole school.
