National Curriculum KS4: Writing

Pupils should be taught to:

• write accurately, fluently, effectively and at length for pleasure and information through:
  • adapting their writing for a wide range of purposes and audiences: to describe, narrate, explain, instruct, give and respond to information, and argue
  • selecting and organising ideas, facts and key points, and citing evidence, details and quotation effectively and pertinently for support and emphasis
  • selecting, and using judiciously, vocabulary, grammar, form, and structural and organisational features, including rhetorical devices, to reflect audience, purpose and context, and using Standard English where appropriate
• make notes, draft and write, including using information provided by others [e.g. writing a letter from key points provided; drawing on and using information from a presentation]
• revise, edit and proof-read through:
  • reflecting on whether their draft achieves the intended impact
  • restructuring their writing, and amending its grammar and vocabulary to improve coherence, consistency, clarity and overall effectiveness
  • paying attention to the accuracy and effectiveness of grammar, punctuation and spelling.
