Whole School Improvement

The Scholastic Reading Audit

“The data allows us to pinpoint particular children, and with a better set of data we can make more informed decisions on how to improve – our strengths and weaknesses. It also helps us get parents involved, understanding what they can do to directly improve their child’s reading.” Kings Hill Primary School

Primary School Reading and Assessment

Reciprocal reading with Connectors

“Children across the school are reading independently – that is the biggest difference already – they are not relying on adults, and so far outcomes are improving term-by-term.” Oaks Primary Academy

PM Reading and PM Writing

“We are a forward-thinking school and PM has been our focus for improvement. Feedback over the first few months has been really positive – comprehension is up, reading enjoyment is up, and teachers visibly have a buzz about them too.” Kirkhill Primary School

Scholastic Reading Pro

“We have a well-stocked library, but the challenge has been knowing which books work best for certain pupils and what free readers require. Key Stage 2 children needed particular support, in particular pushing greater depth and mastery in comprehension skills, and as part of Reading Pro we now know individual pupils’ Lexile measures and have a better range of books to support progress.” Kings Hill Primary School

Pie Corbett’s Reading Spine

“The Reading Spine is being used by children in reception through to Year 6 and when pupils read each set of books they get a certificate – we can directly measure the impact of Pie Corbett’s books by how many children take up this challenge.” Whiteparish All Saints Church of England Primary School

Supporting striving readers

““The Barrington Stoke books have hooked pupils in with reading material that interests and engages them, from football to mountain biking. They are also proving effective for learners with specific learning difficulties such as mild dyslexia – especially boy readers – and these children are first to ‘bagsy’ them.” Whiteparish All Saints Church of England Primary School

Mathematics

“The Scholastic resources have helped us to grasp what is required for each year group as well as informing the whole-school approach. We’ve worked with Scholastic for many years and really value their personal and non-salesy approach.” BillingboroughPrimary School

KS3 and KS4 Assessment, Revision and Practice

GCSE 9–1 Practice and Revision

“The Scholastic resources go into far more detail than some of the other revision guides we have used and I’ve not seen any other resources that have an app linked to them. We would definitely recommend the resources to other schools. Everything you need to revise is in one place to enable students to work independently.” Brentwood County High School

STEPS (Strategic Targets for Educational Progress and Success in Key Stage 3)

“We are happy and content with where we are – the system is working for us. We are able to demonstrate progress for the pupils, which is absolutely key. The baselines mean we are doing the same thing for pupils in all subjects so we are able to accurately track their progress.” Trinity Catholic College
