The Outwood English Hub
The English Hub programme was launched in October 2018 when the Department for Education announced the names of 34 schools across England that were to be designated as an English Hub. A further 2 schools have since been designated to increase the network.
The purpose of the English Hubs is to promote a love of reading and to take a leading role in supporting schools in the teaching of early reading and phonics. English Hubs will run events to showcase excellent practice in teaching reading to local schools.
Outwood Primary Academy Lofthouse Gate, Wakefield, is designated as English Hub and works as part of the Outwood Institute of Education network.
