Based upon experience and recent research into effective teaching and learning, BoosterBooks offers a range of programmes, assessment and tuition services for children, young people and adults. All services are provided by Registered BoosterBooks Outreach Teachers and are available both in and out of school, and other establishments.
BoosterBooks Programmes
BoosterBooks Programmes generally run in school during literacy hour, but may also be provided out of school hours. Following assessment, the children work in a team of 4 with a BoosterBooks Outreach Teacher and are seen for an hour each day for a period of 5 weeks.
Specifically designed for each team, BoosterBooks programmes are suitable for children and young people of all ages and abilities.
