Do same language subtitles help children learn to read?

 

Learning to read is the most important milestone of a child's education. However, many children leave primary school with poor reading skills. This project will investigate whether encountering same language subtitles while watching television can improve children's reading. Find out more about the project here. 
We are recruiting primary schools and families in the South East to participate in the project.  Please complete the form below if you are interested!
