Our innovative tools and resources help bridge the attainment gap and ensure all students reach their full potential.
Research has shown that students from disadvantaged backgrounds often face significant barriers to academic achievement. However, with the proper support and personalised learning approaches, we can break down these barriers and empower every student to thrive.
Our solutions offer a comprehensive educational tool suite that revolutionises teaching and learning. Here’s how our solutions can make a tangible difference in closing the attainment gap:
Every student learns at their own pace and has distinct learning needs. Our solutions enable teachers to create personalised learning paths, tailoring practice to individual students.
We recognise that some students require additional support to overcome specific challenges—our range of intervention tools is designed to target areas of improvement.
Teachers need reliable insights to make informed decisions. Our robust analytics and reporting tools enable educators and administrators to identify trends, monitor progress, and allocate resources effectively.
Our solutions are accessible across various devices to ensure that all students can make progress regardless of their circumstances.
Springfield Junior School in Ipswich has an incredible track record in attainment for all their 350 pupils, particularly with those disadvantaged children who meet the eligibility criteria for pupil premium funding.
They won the National Pupil Premium Award for Primary Schools in recognition of their success with disadvantaged pupils. Assistant Headteacher Daniel Jones is an accredited Pupil Premium reviewer for the National College for Teaching and Leadership. Read his quotes below on how Accelerated Reader and Star Reading helped the school in their success.
Our pupils achieve so much because we take a rigorous approach to ensuring that all of them are reading regularly. Accelerated Reader is a key factor in enabling us to track that. It’s clear that we have a reading culture in the school, but the diagnostics we get from Accelerated Reader and Star Reading allow us to show and measure it using clear, comparable data.
Running weekly reports like this means we can also pick up on children who haven’t quizzed recently. We can then find extra opportunities for those children to read. Something that I’ve learnt from my work here and in other schools previously is the importance of ensuring that disadvantaged pupils are reading regularly.
As well as using Accelerated Reader daily, we also regularly administer Star Reading tests with our children. These tests give us an extra layer of information on reading ages and pupil growth, and they provide this data in a manageable way, making it easy to keep track without giving teachers extra work.
Our solutions offer streamlined assessment, personalised learning, and reduced teacher workload.
