Why ReadingWise is the ideal solution for English as an Additional Language (EAL) Students?
Learning English is a challenge for anyone new to the language. In schools, especially primaries in big cities and urban areas across the country there are often dozens if not hundreds of pupils who are completely new to English.
In many cases, English isn’t the main language they’re immersed in at home, so adjusting to this in a school environment is difficult for them, and teachers attempting to teach them English to the level the school and National Curriculum requires.
Teachers, TAs, and SENco teachers require a solution that’s easy to use, can be taught to an entire class, and aligns with national curriculum literacy targets at every age group and key stage, regardless of the actual age of the pupils being taught.
ReadingWise is that solution, based on a hugely successful programme that’s still being used to teach millions of people English in India. It was then trialled and tested in the UK, and now four core modules are proven to improve reading ages by 9.5 months in only 1 term.
In this school, the teachers used Comprehension , a powerful, engaging, and fun literacy intervention module to develop the quest for meaning behind a narrative. Its content, structure, and design deliver age-appropriate sessions for Primary and Secondary schools Years 5-9.
