Disciplinary reading helps students to read with purpose and engagement in different subject areas. This session will focus on strategies to support reading for understanding in all areas of the curriculum. Drawing on the evidence from the London South Research School's disciplinary reading programme, which has been delivered in 30 primary schools across the South East over the last two years, this session builds on the subject-specific reading techniques traditionally employed in secondary schools to apply them successfully in the primary classroom.
