Hamilton Trust English
Hamilton Trust
Hamilton’s flexible English blocks offer fully-integrated plans and resources for Reception to Year 6. Our themed blocks centre around quality key texts and a corresponding genre. The units within each block complement each other and build progressively towards an extended piece of writing. Start with the core unit and then chose from the other SPaG, comprehension and composition units to build a block of work tailored specifically for your class.
Each unit provides everything you need to deliver outstanding lessons: detailed, day-by-day plans, printable resources, and, where appropriate, PowerPoints and Group Readers (phonologically decodable texts exclusive to Hamilton Trust).
For Years EYFS - 6
Features
Flexible blocks for all years from Reception to Year 6.
Each block contains units focusing on Comprehension, SPaG and Composition.
Our flexible blocks can be easily adapted to suit your class – teach the core unit then choose from four or five other units or teach them all!
Units contain a planning document with a set of resources including text extracts, posters for display and worksheets.
SPaG units provide integrated teaching and learning activities and a teaching PowerPoint where appropriate.

Literary Curriculum
The Literacy Tree
Created in 2012, the award-winning Literary Curriculum from the Literacy Tree is used by 25,000 teachers and home educators across the UK and schools worldwide to ‘Teach through a Text’. It is a complete book-based approach to the teaching of primary English. With over 200 book-based resources including planning sequences for writing, Literary Leaves for reading, and Spelling Seeds to support spelling and vocabulary acquisition, this comprehensive resource supports schools with creating a community where children develop into critical readers and informed writers.
The Literary Curriculum won in the English category of the Teach Primary Awards in 2019 and 2020.
For Years EYFS - 7
Features
The Literary Curriculum has complete coverage of all National Curriculum expectations for writing composition, grammar, punctuation, spelling and vocabulary, and reading comprehension. The planning sequences guide teachers through using a text starting with engaging starting points that lead to purposeful writing opportunities with a range of genres. The Literary Leaves teach Reading Comprehension and are written for Y2-Y6.
Anyone can access a whole-school thematic map which schools can use to adopt or adapt ( see our ‘How it Works’ page). Other features for members include an interactive assessment tool and a writing sharing platform.
