We are delighted to announce that we will be working together with 5 Wells Teaching Alliance and Northamptonshire County Council to devise a two year programme of targeted support to raise attainment and progress in reading at the end of KS2.

Analysis of KS2 data across the Local Authority over the past two years indicates that one of the key issues for our county is Reading. In order to begin to address this, we will work in collaboration to support teachers and SLE’s and provide them with up to date training based on recent research about the teaching of reading and will draw on good practice from within our county and beyond.

Senior School Improvement Manager for Northamptonshire County Council Miss Jessica Steele said, ‘This exciting project has been devised by the Northamptonshire Collaborative Reading Partnership (NCRP), which is based on the idea of developing in school capacity and sustainability through partnerships with teaching schools, schools and the Local Authority in Northamptonshire. The LA are really excited to be working with Brooke Weston as part of this fantastic project as it will allow us to work with a wide range of schools across the county to raise the profile of reading, develop and promote a love of reading and accelerate progress in reading over KS2.’
