I'm now into my fifth year of writing for @neunion.bsky.social's Educate magazine. It's something I enjoy doing and I'm delighted to have had over 30 articles published about the importance of reading. Hopefully, they've been useful. They can all be accessed for free here: neu.org.uk/latest/union...

Interestingly, the genesis of Scarborough's Reading Rope originates in a series of lectures to the parents of children with reading barriers. The rope still serves as a great framework for educating educators and supporting reading profiles to develop fluency.

Low reading engagement is a persistent challenge, but non-fiction could hold the key. Research shows it can transform reluctant readers by sparking motivation and confidence, especially when texts align with their interests. What obstacles do educators face?

I am impressed with how this report has been presented. It clearly highlights the critical role of spoken language in learning, wellbeing, and life chances. Now to roll our sleeves up and bring on the action. Making oracy a priority in every classroom.
These conversations are too good to pass up listening to! 👇 The final report is filled with great questions to reflect on and innovative case studies. Particularly enjoy the debate this sparks around disciplinary oracy.
Hello, new BlueSky followers. In April, I was proud to be asked to chair the Oracy Education Commission.
