Accelerated Reader

Log into Accelerated Reader here.

All students in years 7, 8 and 9 at Connaught School for Girls participate in a three-year literacy programme to boost their reading levels. This programme is led by the English Department, Heads of Years 7, 8 and 9 and their Form Tutors. The programme, called Accelerated Reader, works with the following key steps:

1. Students taking an initial 15-minute multiple choice reading test on a school computer to determine their personal reading level range.
2. Students choosing a book within their reading level range from our library, bookshop or home bookshelf then reading during dedicated school time and at home.
3. Students taking a 10-minute multiple choice comprehension quiz during a school lunchtime or after-school club on the book they have just finished reading.
4. Students gaining points for every successful comprehension quiz, leading to individual and tutor group prizes and progress towards  their individual points target
5. Students taking further reading tests at the end of each half term with the school analysing each student’s revised reading level range and their progress and making interventions as necessary.
