A well written and comprehensive book covering most of the essentials the PGCE students will need to support their teaching of Primary English.
This is a well-established text which we recommend for all of our primary courses even though we have written rival texts. Medwell and Wray are leaders in the field and their books are of a consistently high quality.

This book is a very basic guide on the practical aspects of teaching primary English. It is useful for new teachers to have for their personal use but it doesn't explore English teaching in depth.
This has been useful for students who lack confidence in their own subject knowledge in this area.
This books works well in tandem with 'Primary English: Knowledge and understanding' by the same authors. My students find both books interesting, practical and useful.
Recommending this book to my students to support them with a unit on embedding english into the curriculum
This latest and updated incarnation of 'Primary English Teaching and Practice' has maintained the powerful presentation of English pedagogy, within sound theoretical and research-evidenced contexts, that made each previous edition one of the most useful texts for student teachers .
This book continues to be a core text in English modules.
Useful up-to-date with changes to curriculum.
* A lot of the suggestions that it makes on good practice within the teaching of English are core to all teaching approaches.
* Its progressive approach to learning (from EYFS to KS2) is excellent and allows students to appreciate the different stages of learning in Speaking and Listening, Reading and Writing.

An accessible book that gives a good overview of some of the key theory and practice in primary English teaching. It includes ideas throughout on embedding ICT into lessons.
Essential reading, proved to be very successful for the English modules.
