At Burton PRU, we firmly believe that reading is a cornerstone of academic and personal growth. For our secondary school students, reading is not just about decoding words on a page; it’s about unlocking new worlds, ideas, and perspectives. Through reading, students can explore diverse cultures, historical events, and scientific discoveries, all of which enrich their understanding of the world around them. We encourage our students to engage with a wide range of genres and authors, fostering a love for literature that extends beyond the classroom.
We support students at whatever level of reading they are from admission. Our Reading Strategy outlines this support below.
