Case stufy - Lads 'n' Dads scheme at Castle Batch Primary School
23 Jul 2009
We decided to run the reading scheme to encourage more boys to read and to provide them with a positive male role model in the form of their dads. Through teacher assessment and data analysis, we had noticed that our boys were not achieving as highly as our girls in reading and we were worried about the impact this would have on all areas of their learning. We also thought the scheme would be a really positive opportunity for boys to spend some more time with their dads.
