Hybrid Reading Interventions
Reading Copilot is our school reading intervention system for students aged 7-17. It combines:
- Expert analysis of the causes of frustration for each student
- Coaching and support for one member of staff
- Access to our online resources
It uses tools and techniques that we have developed over the past 17 years, to ensure every student can become a confident, proficient reader.
And this is about more than just reading! Listen to the teachers below discussing the transformations they have seen:
Age Appropriate
All the materials in the Reading Copilot Trainertext Library are designed to be suitable for older students. The psychology of learning is very critical. Reading Copilot can work for teenagers, just as well as younger students.
Hands Free
The system is designed so that the student can do their daily sessions unassisted.
This is also important for their psychology.
It also means that a single teaching assistant can. monitor a group of 4-5 students doing the daily reading practice in just 15 minutes.
Holistic
The key to success is that the intervention process must be learner-focused. We track nine different possible causes of difficulty for a student and ensure that we have overcome every barrier that they individually face.
Evidence Based
You can check the results of the randomised control trial done by the Open University here. The cohort of 90 children were 2+ years behind and all caught up bar one within 6 months of trainertext intervention.
We have been delivering reading intervention processes since 2008 and have worked directly with over 15,000 reluctant readers and dyslexics.
We are always testing new techniques, but all the elements of our core processes have been tested many times.
Expert Supported
The process will be overseen by an expert All Aboard Reading Coach, who is trained on the patterns of all nine potential causes of reading frustration that we track.
They are there to make sure you achieve the best and fastest results with all the interventions you are running. That will save you from wasted time and doubts about what is possible.
This also removes the need for lengthy training processes. You can get started right away.
What's Possible
Here are a couple of videos to give you a feel for the sort of transformation that is possible, even after years of frustration:
Cost
What is the cost every month of reading interventions that don’t work?
What is the cost every month of managing IEPs and discussing these issues with parents?
Reading frustrations are a daily drag on the operation of the school, but with Reading Copilot we guarantee you will see your first ten reluctant readers becoming accurate, fluent and confident for £2,500/$3,200. We do not charge if we cannot help a child and the only internal school cost is one experienced TA for 20 minutes per day for each group of 5 students.
The Benefits We Guarantee
Imagine what your teachers can achieve when they are just teaching the curriculum, without dealing with the difficulties, disruption and disengagement caused by reading frustrations.
This can only be achieved by each impaired reader overcoming their individual challenges, so that they can re-engage with their education.
We are happy to guarantee that they do individually overcome their challenges. We will work with a student until their reading is at a proficient level.
