Why choose Fluency for All?
We believe our programme offers something unique. We have developed an anthology of 50 engaging fiction and non-fiction texts that connect to topics students will study in school. From ancient Greek myths to the wonders of the Egyptian pyramids, these texts build reading skills and background knowledge, giving students valuable context for their wider studies.
We support schools with improving students' reading skills
Fluency for All (FFA) is an evidence-based reading intervention created by Shotton Hall Research School to give teachers and reading leads an effective way to support struggling readers.
The intervention pairs younger students with older peer-tutors. This approach offers consistent, manageable support that doesn’t require teachers' direct involvement, making it an easy-to-implement solution for busy schools.
