Developing Reading
There is good evidence to suggest that young people who read for pleasure daily perform better in reading skills tests than those who never do. However, a recent survey carried out by the National Literacy Trust has indicated a decline in the amount of time children spend reading for pleasure. (DFE June 2012)

Why read at home with your child
Developing a culture of reading is a key priority at Latimer. We want our children to live and breathe books, adore finding new authors and losing themselves in a good novel. We know that reading is a key to life long success for all our children. Talk to your child's class teacher to see how you can support with developing reading at home.
