P1 – P3 Enrichment

Phonics That Finally Clicks

Most children struggle with reading not because they lack ability — but because no one showed them how words work. Our diagnostic phonics programme fixes that, step by step.

Reading isn't magic — it's a skill that can be taught

Phonics is the method of teaching children to connect letters (and letter combinations) to the sounds they make. When a child understands how written words map to spoken sounds, they can decode any new word they encounter — not just the ones they've memorised.

In Singapore's lower primary years (P1–P3), a strong phonics foundation directly supports performance in English spelling, reading comprehension, and oral work. Children who miss this foundation often hit a wall in P4 and P5 when texts become more complex.

A proven 4-stage pathway to reading confidence

Every child starts with a diagnostic. From there, we follow a structured progression — no skipping stages, no guessing where the gaps are.

1
Diagnostic Assessment
Free entry assessment identifies exactly which phonics skills your child has — and which are missing. No guesswork.
2
Phonetic Decoding
Children master letter-sound correspondences, digraphs (ch, sh, th), and vowel patterns through structured, multi-sensory activities.
3
Blending & Spelling
Sounds become words. We train blending for reading and segmenting for spelling — the two core phonics skills for school.
4
Fluency & Transfer
Skills transfer to real texts. Children read connected passages with growing speed, accuracy and comprehension.

Built for Singapore parents who want results, not excuses

Questions parents ask us

Our phonics programme is designed for children in Primary 1, 2 and 3 (typically ages 6–9). We start with a free diagnostic to place your child in the right level — some P3 children benefit from consolidation work, while advanced P1 children may progress faster.
Our phonics classes are priced in the $260–$300 per month range (4 sessions of 60 min each), depending on level. Contact us for the current fee schedule and available slots at your preferred centre.
We cap every phonics class at a maximum of 12 students. This ensures each child receives individual attention and the tutor can monitor progress, catch errors early, and keep every student engaged.
Not at all. Many P3 children benefit from structured phonics consolidation, especially for reading multi-syllabic words and applying spelling rules. Our diagnostic will identify exactly which gaps remain — and we build from there, not from scratch.
The free phonics diagnostic (approximately 20–30 minutes) assesses your child's phoneme awareness, letter-sound knowledge, blending ability and sight word recognition. Results are shared with parents on the same day so you have a clear picture immediately.
Yes. Our programme reinforces the phonological awareness and decoding skills required under the MOE English Language curriculum for lower primary. Your child's phonics progress at Edugate directly supports their school English work — spelling tests, reading comprehension, and oral work.
Yes. The Edugate phonics programme runs at all four centres — Kovan, Bugis, Bedok, and Choa Chu Kang. The curriculum, materials and teaching approach are consistent across all locations. Choose whichever is most convenient for your family.
