It was great to see two ends of the reading spectrum from Year 7 to Year 12 on the last Friday of half term with the CDCs choosing an appropriate age-related text to read to their CDC groups.

As always on a Friday morning, students across the school site are devoting the 20 minutes in CDC time to developing their love of reading and the habits we are inculcating in all students during this time is really helping to reinforce the concept of literacy underpinning all learning.

The Year 7 students were listening to a guided reading activity led by Mr Cox and Year 12 students were focussed on an article that was unpicking the power of social media on the current US election.

Please see the two videos below to see how we start our Friday mornings here at Bushey Meads School.
