5/ 2/ 2026 Welfare and Standards committee

Governors asked Mrs. Roughley to explore why some parents weren't hearing their children read three times a week on more detail so that we could plan a more comprehensive support programme for parents.

We explored this with parents and time was the largest factor. We researched how we could support parents and purchased Pageticker, an exciting research backed application to support parents to read with their children at home.

IMPACT: COMING SOON
