Further Findings from the KS2 Reading Fluency Project

To date, the KS2 Reading Fluency Project has supported over 300 year 6 pupils from 46 schools to improve their trajectory towards the Expected Standard in reading.

The spring 2018 data mirrors the data yielded from the first round:

Pupils made an average of 23 months progress in reading comprehension age following the 8-week project period (pupils on the autumn round made 22 months progress – click here to read the autumn summary report {data gained using the York Assessment of Reading Comprehension assessment tool}).

86% of pupils made 6 months+ progress (81% of pupils on the autumn round made 6 months+ progress).

Having a wealth of experience of working with a diverse range of pupils from a wide range of schools, we are now in an even better position to share more findings from this innovative project.
Note: 'Key Stage 2' refers to the 7 to 11 years old children in England.

There are a number of interesting post at the 'Herts for Learning' blog.
