Hello Everyone! 

We are looking for some volunteers in Lower Key Stage Two to come into school and listen to some children read on a 1:1 basis. 

Scarily, 1 in 4 children leave primary school unable to read well, resulting in life long consequences. It is our mission at Carcroft to ensure that all of our children leave our school able to read well. 

If you have some time to spare, a day, a few hours or even an hour, and enjoy spending time with children then we would love it if you could come and help us to support our children with reading. 

We hope that from this experience our children will become better readers and develop a stronger love for reading and for you to gain an enormous amount of pleasure from seeing the difference that a few hours can make to a child’s reading ability, confidence and enjoyment. 

Ideally we would appreciate volunteers giving us their time until the end of the Summer Term, however if you are only able to commit to a few weeks or months then please do not hesitate to enquire. 

If you feel like this is something that you can offer then please pop into school and ask to speak to myself, Mrs Elmer (KS2 Reading Lead) and I will provide you with more details. 

I look forward to hearing from you.
