Reading Fluency- Virtual 2025/26

The Reading Fluency Medium Level Support programme is a structured professional development series designed to help you deepen your understanding and improve your practice in reading fluency across Key Stage 2. Through a carefully sequenced programme of support, you’ll explore key strategies such as building automaticity, developing prosody, and strengthening vocabulary and comprehension. The focus is on applying these approaches in your own school setting to enhance literacy outcomes and support pupils in becoming confident, fluent readers. The programme is still in development, so more information will be shared soon, including further details about content.
