Putting reading in the spotlight

In light of the New Ofsted Framework, GL Assessment is offering NAHT members an exclusive 5% discount on all primary reading tests* From January 2012, Ofsted will place a huge emphasis on pupils’ achievement in early reading and literacy. Unveiling the new framework last September, the then chief inspector, Miriam Rosen, explained, “An important aspect of this framework is the priority given to pupils’ achievement in early reading and literacy. Teaching children effectively to read so that they attain the expected standards by age seven is a core duty for primary schools. Otherwise we know children will struggle at secondary school and later in life. Inspectors will give this area of school life the highest priority, including hearing pupils read.” In light of this, GL Assessment is delighted to offer NAHT members an exclusive 5% discount on all of our primary reading tests.

*The exclusive 5% discount applies to NAHT members only, who have not previously purchased the primary reading assessments outlined in the offer. Please see terms and conditions on www.gl-assessment.co.uk/naht for further details.
