The Influence of Home Language and Literacy Environment and Parental Self-Efficacy on Chilean Preschoolers’ Early Literacy Outcomes
We examined the effects of shared reading workshops on children’s early literacy outcomes. Data was collected for 240 children, 144 of whom had their parents or caregivers participate in a shared reading workshop. The remaining 129 were included as a comparison group. Pre- and post-intervention measures of HLLE, narrative skills, alphabet knowledge, and parental self-efficacy scores were collected. Findings show higher and statistically significa…
The Development of a Train-the-Trainer Approach in Reciprocal Reading Instruction in England’s Primary Schools
There is good evidence that targeted reciprocal reading instruction for struggling readers can lead to attainment gains in reading for children aged 9–12 years in England using the FFT Reciprocal Reading instruction programme when training is delivered by the programme developer. However, for programme scale-up, a train-the-trainer delivery approach is required. This study reports the development of a train-the-trainer delivery approach during a …
Promoting High Achievement for Disadvantaged Students
Equity of education outcomes for all children continues to be a shared goal amongst education leaders, post-pandemic. In England, issues of underachievement are of particular concern in socio-economically disadvantaged regions. Nevertheless, a minority of schools demonstrate high achievement for students from high-poverty backgrounds. This paper reports on the process of co-designing a school self-evaluation tool aligned to seven key indicators w…
Testing the Feasibility and Impact of Train-the-Trainer Delivery for a Peer Tutoring Reading Programme in Chile
Peer tutoring through a structured low-cost approach to reading in pairs using the Paired Reading programme has resulted in attainment gains in reading in English (UK) and Spanish (Colombia), using developer-led training in schools. Given the continued issues with poor reading attainment globally, in preparation for the scalability of Paired Reading in the Global South, a train-the-trainer delivery programme was developed, implemented, and assess…
Results from a Phase 3 definitive trial of reciprocal reading in English high schools
Phase 3 definitive randomized controlled trial in high schools in England. • The intervention aims to improve overall reading and comprehension. • The intervention is a teacher/teaching assistant instruction program for reading comprehension instruction to targeted students. • The magnitude of the observed change in the treatment group was in line with previous findings. • No significant differences in gains were found between control and treatme…
Access to mathematics learning for lower secondary students in England during school closures
During the initial period of ‘lockdown’ in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, schools in England were closed to the majority of pupils for 15 weeks. We examine how during this time schools provided emergency remote teaching in mathematics to lower secondary pupils with different levels of prior attainment and advantage. Drawing on a mixed-methods study including a survey (N = 49) and interviews (N = 17) with Heads of Mathematics, we analyse schoo…
Examining the inner logic of students’ coding orientations and the internal structure of written language in math tests from Basil Bernstein's code theory
A Phase 3 randomized controlled trial of a vocabulary program in elementary schools in England
Vocabulary development is important for successful reading comprehension. Given the global challenges facing children's reading standards, there is an urgency to enable school children to improve their reading including their vocabulary. This protocol presents a randomized controlled trial to test a vocabulary program in English elementary schools. The trial will establish whether the positive findings from a smaller trial undertaken in England a…
Comparing the effectiveness of two reciprocal reading comprehension interventions for primary school pupils in disadvantaged schools
BACKGROUND: Effective reading comprehension teaching is an aspiration of education systems across the world. Teaching incorporating reciprocal reading theory and evidence is an internationally popular approach for improving comprehension. AIMS: This paper uses two large cluster randomized controlled trials of similar reciprocal reading interventions implemented in different ways to compare their effectiveness. SAMPLE: The two interventions had th…
Examining Basil Bernstein's rules of recognition and realization in the case of underachieving students in math tests
Assessing the Differential Effects of Peer Tutoring for Tutors and Tutees
There is strong evidence that peer tutoring, as a form of cooperative learning, has a positive impact on tutor and tutee outcomes. However, little previous research has been reported as to the differential effects of engaging in cooperative learning in dyads for peer tutors and peer tutees, respectively. A randomised controlled experimental study was undertaken involving 295, 11- to 13-year-old students, drawn from 12 classrooms, across three sec…

A Phase 2 Exploratory Trial of a Vocabulary Intervention in High Poverty Elementary Education Settings
This article reports results of a phase 2 exploratory trial of a vocabulary program delivered in elementary schools to improve student’s reading ability, including their comprehension. The intervention was tested as a targeted intervention in classrooms with children aged 7–10 across 20 weeks during one school year, with eligible students learning in small groups of four. Teachers and support staff received training in this cooperative learning a…

Co/productive practitioner relations for children with SLCN
This paper examines how school-based practitioners supporting children with speech, language and communication needs (SLCN) use particular social capital relations. Social capital theory together with selected ‘Productive Pedagogies’ items, are applied to re-frame and understand the co/production of support for such children. Empirical data from the ‘Language for All’ study, which investigates SLCN provision in schools in England, are analysed to…
