Great grammar teaching for every classroom

Real Grammar provides you with everything you need to teach and embed all objectives from the grammar curriculum for Years 1-6.

Its comprehensive and flexible 5-step TEACH, PRACTISE, REVISIT, APPLY, REVISE approach has been designed to support teachers to deliver quality-first lessons and ensure consistent progress for all pupils, with plenty of opportunity to identify gaps in knowledge, and close them, through spacing and interleaving. What’s more, in order to establish really deep understanding, Real Grammar puts each objective in context, with original model texts demonstrating usage, and creative writing tasks that allow children to put their learning into practice.

“Real Grammar's approach is far more likely [than traditional label-the-parts teaching] to lead to children being able to apply their grammatical learning to their future compositions…which is surely the desired end-goal!”

“This is a well-planned and supportive resource that will certainly help children pass grammar tests – and enjoy the process – but, more importantly, help them towards effective, practical application in their own compositions.”
