UKLA has sent its response to the call for evidence for developing a new national reading strategy in England for the ‘Read On, Get On’ campaign to get every child reading well by the age of 11
On behalf of the Read On Get On coalition in England, the RSA (Royal Society for the Encouragement of the Arts, Manufacturing and Commerce) has been commissioned to develop a national reading strategy for England. This work will provide analysis of the problem, identify key objectives and set out the strategic action needed over the next decade to achieve the following target goals for 2020 and 2025:
1. All children achieve good early language development by age five by 2020
2. Every child is able to read well by the age of 11 by 2025, with good progress made so that we are at least halfway towards this goal by 2020
