Great thread here about the reading gap. A lot of discussions I've been involved with reference 'high school readiness' in terms of prepping for content. Let's be honest, fluency is key. Before we tweak anything, we need to ask: Can they read it with confidence? 🤔📚👇
The reading gap Approx one in four pupils move to secondary school without having met the expected standard in the key stage 2 national reading test. This holds many of them back in secondary school, both in their English lessons and more widely across the curriculum. /1

I've always said it: to improve the writing, we must first improve the writer. I've thoroughly enjoyed reading the new writing framework from @educationgovuk. Excited for all the young voices this will help shape. 🙏📚✍️
