Claire McKie - Founder and author of Power Phonics. My background is teaching in mainstream and SEND in primary and secondary. I created a new phonics pathway. Thought Letters and Sounds has had its day & failed far too many young/older learners in front of me. Time to power up!

How many teachers out there have personally helped children to have a clean uniform/provide deodorants/hygiene products? I have - many, many times over my teaching career. Don’t think there was a year I didn’t, over 15yrs in primary and secondary. news.sky.com/story/teachers…

We teach first sounds (alphabet) then our unique Sound Families. Each Phoneme Family lives in a house on Family Fields Street. Each written representation of the same sound (grapheme) compared in the same sound family. Much better results across the board. powerphonicsbooks.com

We created a new phonics pathway. We know trapping learners into endless phonics risks loosing so many of them! Almost impossible to develop a love of reading when you are told which book you are ‘allowed to read’. We can accelerate learners through to get to Free Reader asap👇


If there are any secondary teachers out there who need to deliver phonics, drop us an email at info@mckiemastery.co.uk Staff training is free, the programme works incredibly fast and it is very simple! Also works within any timetable. Free Fluency App great for older students.

It’s been quite the rollercoaster phonics ride for us over the past few years..for many schools too. Choose your phonics programme based on what your children need and what will empower your staff. Many feel locked into a programme they don’t like. Switch Funding is available!


You can also find us @dfepowerphonics.bsky.social If you are on there, please follow us.


Are your pupils with SEND served well in phonics sessions or are they doing endless intervention? There is another way. Power Phonics is an entirely different, yet still Government Approved (🇬🇧🇦🇺). SWITCH FUNDING is available. Email me :claire@mckiemastery to chat !

Every child deserves the best start in life and to feel confident in who they are. There is no place for bullying in our schools or online, so this Anti-Bullying Week I encourage everyone to embrace each other’s differences and choose respect! #OddSocksDay

Endless phonics is not helpful. It can trap children into a never-ending cycle of decoding. To develop a love of reading, we must develop preferences. That means having autonomy - choice in what we read. Power Phonics accelerates ‘the phonics part’ of the reading journey. Free…

We don’t do over complicated phases which many children are unable to plough through….. We do have a Sounds Family Sequence which super powers all children through phonics for reading and spelling. Why? It MAKES MORE SENSE. Simple really. 😬

Total misuse of phonics. Stay away from any programme which undermines what you know is best for children and your common sense !

So, I’ve just heard of an SLT that’s saying children can’t write their names because they haven’t been taught all the sounds yet. Make this madness stop!!! I spent my entire career in the classroom telling children to write their name on their work otherwise it would end up
