The impact of the pandemic may mean that some of your pupils may require catch-up provision in reading as part of your recovery curriculum. Government guidance is advising schools to prioritise the identification of gaps in reading and re-establish good progress in phonics, reading and vocabulary. Boosting Reading @ Primary and Boosting Reading @ Secondary includes all of these essential elements with a strong evidence base for targeted support for pupils reading just below the expected standard for their age. Most recently, the programme has been evaluated to demonstrate remarkable progress for continuous text reading. In addition, data for secondary pupils demonstrates remarkable progress in comprehension and overall reading age progress (What Works for Literacy Difficulties, 6 th Edition, 2020.
