Service Description

The RoSIS Reading Fluency Project aims to accelerate achievement in reading fluency and comprehension in a short space of time. The project is aimed at pupils in year 2 and upwards whose reading achievement may be causing concern. The project runs as an eight-week intervention for a focus group of children. These pupils, on average, made 20 months progress in 8 weeks. The intention is that involvement in the project will improve achievement for all students, but that progress will be accelerated for the target group. Schools will need to select 6 children who fit the criteria below to form the target group. Children do not need to be selected before the launch day; further information about suitable choice will be given on that date. Y2: • working below the expected standard in reading currently and may not achieve EXS, particularly the statement relating to fluency • may have passed the PSC but presents with difficulty in reading fluency and / or comprehension. Y3 upwards: • working below the expected standard in reading currently • may have passed the PSC and or achieved ARE in reading at KS1, but now presents with difficulty in reading fluency and / or comprehension A teacher/teaching assistant who has attended training will then be expected to commit to working with this group of children for 20 to 30 minutes, twice a week over an 8-week period. Students will also need to be assessed at the beginning and end of the 8-week project. York Assessment of Reading for Comprehension (YARC) is recommended by Herts for Learning. Data should be submitted to RoSIS at the beginning and end of the intervention. Participation in the project requires that you meet the time and staffing commitments outlined.
