Turn on the Subtitles!

We love this simple idea to help children with their reading (Whole School - 08/03/2021)

The Turn on the Subtitles campaign is so simple and easy yet there's proof that it's effective. Have a look at their website here

Here is Stephen Fry explaining why it's so good!

Turning on the subtitles while children are watching television can double the chances of a child becoming good at reading†. It’s so brilliantly simple and can help children’s literacy so much that we want to shout it from the rooftops!

There’s extensive global research that shows just how effective this is and with the help of our wonderful partners – including charities, companies and famous ambassadors – it’s our mission to share the results in this simple message.
