Abstract | From 2006 the British government strongly favoured synthetic phonics as the principal approach for the teaching of initial literacy in state-funded primary schools in England, and since 2010 has made it mandatory. In 2007-2013 just over 100 commercially published phonics schemes were available, and in that same period the government maintained a system of quality assurance, in the form of two (successive and non-overlapping) panels of independent evaluators. Their task was to judge whether commercial publishers' self-evaluations of their phonics schemes and materials were correct, in the sense of justifying statements that they met the government's criteria for such schemes, etc. Of the schemes that were judged, just over half (54) were found to contain linguistic errors. In this article the errors are analysed in detail, and classified into three main categories: phonetic inaccuracies, phonic inaccuracies, and misguided pedagogies. The criteria for that classification are stated, and conclusions and recommendations drawn -- the main recommendation being that existing schemes need to be scrutinised in detail to ensure that they are fit for purpose. And this would apply to all phonics schemes used anywhere in the English-speaking world, not just in England, even though the criteria for phonetic and phonic accuracy would necessarily differ across accents.
