This is delivered twice a week for 8 to 10 weeks by Mrs Ringland, Mrs Gould and Mrs Miskimmin. The programme has proved very successful with improved results in reading and spelling ages in the majority of pupils who have taken part. An important part of the programme is liaising with parents through parent workshops and regular interviews throughout the programme. |
