Reading

Our vision

All children in our school will leave as fluent, confident readers with excellent comprehension skills to prepare them for the next stage in their education.  We will also nurture a passion for reading, broadening our children’s minds and horizons.

At Three Peaks Primary Academy, reading is a top priority and is a key driver within our curiosity curriculum. Reading is vital skill for success in all areas of the curriculum and is an essential tool for gaining knowledge and understanding. It provides an insight into the wider world, cultures and history. We believe that all pupils should have the opportunity to be fluent, confident readers who are able to successfully comprehend and understand a wide range of fiction and non-fiction texts. We want pupils to develop a love of reading, a good knowledge of a range of authors and be able to understand more about the world in which we live in. Our intent is to ensure that by the end of their primary education, all pupils are able to read fluently and with confidence, in any subject.
