Tric a Chlic - Complete Scheme (English medium schools version)

In light of the development of Curriculum for Wales 2022, and it’s contribution to the Welsh Government’s aim of reaching a million Welsh speakers by 2050, we have developed an adaptation of Tric a Chlic for English-medium schools that provides them with a unique and systematic programto introduce Welsh successfully in their schools.

This new Tric a Chlic programme is suitable for children who have already been introduced to a synthetic phonic programme in English. It allows for easy progression by building on their knowledge, revising sounds and introducing new Welsh sounds orally, through movement and visual clues.

Children can then blend and segment words, short sentences and graded reading books using the same strategies as they do in English. The graded books have also been translated and questions supplied with possible answers for the benefit of both teachers and support staff. There are games, fun activities and songs for children to embed their phonic knowledge through play. The Tric a Chlic app will reinforce the teaching in a creative way by using modern technology.
