How Phonics Bug works

Phonics Bug meets 100% of the DfE criteria for teaching systematic synthetic phonics and helps children succeed in their screening check to boot.

It brilliantly combines an online reading world with stunning eBooks or printed books, with Prepare and Assess online games, word generator, and mock tests for the Year 1 screening check.

Each book is fully decodable, and the eBooks in the online reading world contain fun quizzes, audio to help with pronunciation and notes for parents to help their children develop their phonics skills.

Independent review

"The Phonics Bug programme offers a comprehensive phonic development package that can be completed in as little as 16 weeks, or extended to meet the needs of individual children and classes.

"The high quality resources offered as part of this programme provide invaluable support to help busy teachers ensure they are effectively developing phonics within their classroom and having a lot of fun at the same time."

- John Dabell, Primary Teacher and trained Ofsted Inspector
