Fantastic to read this post from our partner school Orion Eden Park

We are incredibly lucky to be working with Reading Lab from The Children's Literacy Charity. Ms Marsh, one of their expert tutors is helping our students develop the confidence and skills they need to thrive.

Reading Lab provides targeted, small-group literacy support, helping children improve their reading fluency, comprehension and vocabulary while fostering a genuine love of reading. The tailored approach gives every child the opportunity to build confidence and unlock their potential.

We are delighted to see our students making such fantastic progress through the programme. Their growing enthusiasm for reading and increasing confidence are a testament to the dedication of the Reading Lab team and the hard work of our students. Thank you for making such a positive difference! 📚✨
