A consistent literacy strategy across every school

Improve literacy, engagement and personal development at scale with trust-wide visibility, shared resources and meaningful data.

The Day helps academy trusts deliver a consistent literacy strategy across every school, combining engaging resources with trust-wide data to support improvement, scale best practice and demonstrate impact.

Our new, time-saving assessment tools track engagement, reading proficiency, critical thinking, and real-world knowledge for every student.

“We have a crisis of pupil engagement - and it’s hurting literacy”Prof. Jessie Ricketts, Royal Holloway College.

“In a fractious world, engaged and informed readers matter more than ever. The Day inspires the active literacy students need."

Geoff Barton, Chair of the Oracy Education Commission

How we help trusts drive improvement at scale

The Day helps trusts create consistency, identify opportunities for improvement and demonstrate impact across multiple schools, without increasing workload for teachers or school leaders.

Compare reading engagement and participation across schools, year groups and cohorts to identify strengths, uncover challenges and target support where it will have the greatest impact.

Take a look at our new, time-saving assessment tools to track engagement, reading proficiency, critical thinking and real-world knowledge.

 

Literacy improvement is most powerful when it scales

The Day in action


“The different levels of reading even within the same article support all pupils being able to access materials, which have helped raise literacy levels and develop oracy in our young people."
Chris Carey | Assistant Principal, PSHCRE and SMSC Curriculum Lead


“We use it vitally in our school as a part of our daily literacy programme. Every week our school reads an article in the first 20 minutes of the day to improve reading fluency and oracy when discussing the articles. It is also used widely across the entire Trust of Bohunt in which every school uses The Day to encourage oracy and also build cultural capital in our students.”
Lauren Wakely | Teacher of English

“The Day supports schools in meeting the Ofsted requirements around Personal Development by providing access to a wide range of activities that bring big global issues into the classroom. Using The Day can help schools to challenge students to think critically about the world they live in and develop the skills to prepare them to be successful, engaged citizens.”


Helen Blachford | Director of Personal Development
