At Clee Hill Academy, our aim is to encourage a love of reading, which will remain with a child for life. Children are offered a wide range of reading material, including fiction, non-fiction and poetry. They are encouraged to share books with adults working in the school as well as taking them home to share with family and friends.
Reading, and developing a passion for reading, is one of the most useful things that a child can learn when they are young. Research suggests that the more a child reads for pleasure, the more likely they are to be successful when they are older.
At school, children read a wide range of texts, developing a range of reading skills throughout the curriculum including whole class sessions, one to one reading and reading independently.
Parental Support
At Clee Hill Academy, we understand the importance of reading and value the support parents give us with regards to their child learning to read, and developing an enjoyment of it.
Here you will find some useful information about how you can support your child with their reading, both at home and in school.
