Reading Reboot (Tuesday)

It's never too late to become a confident reader.

Reading Reboot is a warm, supportive small-group session designed for learners who are not yet reading confidently, whether they are just starting their reading journey or need a fresh approach to help everything click into place.

We know that every child develops at their own pace, and that reading doesn't happen on a timetable. That's why Reading Reboot focuses on building confidence first, creating a relaxed environment where learners feel safe to have a go, ask questions, make mistakes, and celebrate every step forward.

Led by the experienced and nurturing Miss Caroline, sessions combine games, discussion, detective phonics, word-building activities, stories, and interactive challenges to make learning engaging and enjoyable. Learners are encouraged to participate in ways that feel comfortable for them, helping to reduce anxiety and build self-belief alongside essential reading skills.

Over time, children will develop:

• Phonics knowledge and decoding skills

• Word recognition 

• Vocabulary and language understanding

• Reading fluency and confidence

• Listening and comprehension skills

• Communication and speaking confidence

• A positive attitude towards reading 

Most importantly, Reading Reboot is about helping children discover that they can become confident readers. We focus on progress rather than perfection, celebrating every achievement and helping learners build the strong foundations they need for future learning.

Whether your child has struggled with reading, lost confidence, or simply needs a different approach, Reading Reboot offers a friendly and encouraging space where they can learn, grow, and thrive.

Suitable for emerging readers, reluctant readers, and learners who would benefit from additional support in developing confidence and reading skills.
