Accelerated Reader Speeds up Learning

A new programme for supporting pupil's reading has been launched - the Accelerated Reader is a web-based programme that aims to encourage independent reading by suggesting books that suit individual learners’ reading age and interests. This study by the charity, Education Endowment Foundation (EEF), found that pupils using the programme recorded higher literacy scores than those who didn't. 

The report is one of nine new studies published by the EEF this month, which cover a number of topics and teaching practices.
