This week, pupils received certificates and badges to honour their successes in the Accelerated Reader programme.
Pupils in Years 7-9 have been participating in the Accelerated Reader programme since September. All pupils sat an online test that assessed their reading level and recommended books for them to read. They have all been required to read more than 20 minutes each day.
The pupils have just sat their second round of online tests and the results are exceptional. A third of all pupils have made at least 2 years' progress in their reading in just four months, with 50% making at least 1 years' reading progress. We also had a number of pupils read more than 250,000 words, gaining their Bronze Reading Star Award. Flynn Wilson received the Gold Star Reading Award for reading 1.8 million words.
Thinking Space Manager and Digital Learning Facilitator Mrs Bayley oversaw the programme and is thrilled with the outcome.
