Mock Phonics Screening Check Resource Pack

Prepare pupils for the Year 1 Phonics Screening Check with this complete mock screening resource pack. Designed to mirror the format and structure of the statutory check, this pack provides everything you need to assess decoding skills, build pupil confidence, and inform next steps in phonics teaching.

Included in this pack:

• Mock screening check presentation (split into Section 1 and Section 2)
• Printable word cards for each section
• Marking sheet for tracking performance and making notes
• Scoring guide with acceptable pronunciations, including regional variations

This resource is ideal for classroom use with individual pupils or small groups and can be used for whole-school moderation, phonics interventions, or home-school partnership support. The mock test includes a mix of real and pseudo-words, just like the statutory screening check.

Teaching tip: Use the mark sheet and scoring guide together to make confident and consistent judgements when working with different children or teams.
