What is Reading Recovery?

Reading Recovery is a 1:1 intensive reading programme aimed at Year One and Year Two children only.  Any child on the programme will do some very specific reading and writing with their RR teacher EVERY day they are in school.

By the time children get to the end of their programme it is expected that they will be able to read books at RR level 15 or above.

Booster Reading

This very new - and exciting - initiative is currently only being run in 10 Bristol primary schools!!  It is similar to RR except there is no writing involved.  The aim of Booster is to get all (or most) of the Year Two class reading at RR Level 15 or above.

You will probably have noticed that we have invested a lot of money in buying lots of new and exciting books for our school.  It gives me enormous pleasure to see so many enthused children changing their books on a regular basis.

The only way to learn to read is by reading.
