I am also the English Lead at my school and I am able to obtain reading data from each class myself without taking up the time of the class teachers. It was very easy to set up and use and Russell Newman was very helpful and responded quickly to queries or questions that I had. It gives schools the opportunity to use reading at home data to inform planning and for assessment purposes. To do the same using a paper system would require a huge amount of effort and time.
Sarah Dryden found GoRead:
- Significantly improves teaching efficiency and productivity“It helps me when planning as I can review a child's reading progress and decide their next steps. I can also pick up on areas for development.”
- Slightly saves school money“We were previously using paper reading records, I think the cost is about the same.”
- Significantly improves parental engagement“Parents are able to share the experience of their child reading to them and the information can be keyed into the system from any location. It isn't reliant upon a reading record being available. I can review whether I'm working in the classroom, at home or in the school office.”
