Year 7&8 @SparxReader Reward Assembly. Sparx Reader is an online reading platform which improves students' literacy & encourages a love for reading. It assesses individual reading levels & recommends suitable books accordingly. @Literacy_Trust
Students have made exceptional progress this year as a result of the #determination shown both in the classroom and in Home Learning using @SparxReader. A huge thank you to parents too who have supported this, living our value of #community.
Reading changes lives!
So rightfully, reading is at the core of everything that we do at River Academy.
The result? More than 60% of our students have made more than 12 months progress in their reading in just 8 months.

We are looking forward to another academic year working with @SparxReader for all of our KS3 students here at HLSC. Watch this space for KS4 involvement too!
