About the Oxford School Dictionary & Thesaurus
When your child is building vocabulary and writing skills across the curriculum, the Oxford School Dictionary & Thesaurus delivers two essential reference tools in one durable volume. Designed for Year 6 pupils aged 10-11 moving into Year 7, this combined resource supports English spelling, punctuation, grammar, writing and vocabulary development with clear definitions at the top of each page and thousands of synonyms arranged by meaning at the bottom.
The dictionary section provides simple definitions, up-to-date example sentences, and guidance on spelling, grammar and punctuation, while the companion thesaurus offers synonyms organised by the meaning closest to each headword. Easy navigation features—colour headwords, alphabet tabs on every page, and a sturdy binding—make it quick to find the right word during homework, independent study or creative writing tasks. Created using the Oxford Children's Corpus, a database of millions of words written for children, every entry reflects real language use.
This single-volume reference builds confidence in English across all subjects, helping pupils express ideas more precisely, avoid repetition in essays, and understand unfamiliar vocabulary in texts. It fits the Year 6 and Year 7 curriculum requirements, supporting the transition from primary to secondary school with comprehensive language support that stays relevant throughout Key Stage 3. The physical product ships quickly across the UK, so your child can start strengthening vocabulary and writing skills straight away.
The Oxford School Dictionary & Thesaurus suits upper primary and early secondary pupils who need reliable, age-appropriate language support at their fingertips. It works equally well for homework, creative writing, exam preparation and everyday reading, offering clear answers and writing tips that encourage independent learning.
