Came accross this recently and couldnt get my head round it really. Any help out there and do you know of any web sites with information on how to teach it?

Thought not, it supposed to be really good at teaching the different sounds at a young age.

No, its how to recognise the vowel sounds like read and the past tense read.
How to know when its a ou= oo sound or ou= ow sound.

I am wondering if it had just been introduced.

I heard of it through a contact at a private school.

You could try starfall. ds seems to pick up the rules of reading very quickly from this site.
Basically the vowel is (usually) long if there's a silent e at the end of the word.
