In July 2025, the UK Government released the Writing Framework. It highlights the importance of:
Jolly Learning’s approach supports these priorities and has done since we launched our first programme. Our resources are ready to help your school meet and exceed the expectations in the new framework, from the earliest stages of writing through to spelling, grammar and creative composition.
A structured series that combines phonics, spelling, sentence writing and dictation.
Used in over 150 countries to support early literacy and confident writers.
A complete handwriting programme, from first pencil strokes to joined-up writing. Launched in 2025 to support the roll-out of the new framework.
These books have been a huge success from Day 1.
Jolly Literacy builds on the foundations of Jolly Phonics, supporting pupils as they progress through Key Stage 1 and beyond.
