Reading for pleasure
How can I help my child with reading?
The single biggest predictor of high academic achievement is reading to children. Not flashcards, not workbooks, not fancy pre-schools, not technology or computers, but cherished adults taking the time every day or night (or both!) to sit and read them wonderful books.
Your involvement in your child's education is crucial. Children with involved parents and carers, irrespective of income or background, are more likely to have higher academic achievement, better social skills and behaviour, greater confidence and self-esteem.
Our school leaflet - SEE LINK BELOW - will help you support your child with their reading. It will provide you with some ideas and resources to ensure your child becomes an enthusiastic, confident, and fluent reader.
