Sparx Reader Workshop

22 Nov 24

Thank you to everyone who attended our workshop on the new SparxReader programme for students in Year 7, 8 and 9.

We think this is an exciting programme that will help us to improve literacy at Sheldon and can make reading even more fun. Sparx Reader is an engaging and supportive platform in which pupils can develop their reading and literacy skill. The platform has options to change text and background colours , enlarge the text and check the meaning of unfamiliar vocabulary.

If you were unable to attend the meeting, you can download the presentation from Mr Symes, Deputy Headteacher. If you have any further questions about SparxReader, please let us know. We will launch the programme with our KS3 students in early 2025. Happy Reading!

I was head girl in 2015 and loved being able to speak to parents about my time at Sheldon when they were considering where their children should go. Because of how it has shaped me as a person I feel I am who I am today because of my time there.
