Effectiveness

Research into effectiveness assesses whether an intervention works in the field and can be integrated into the existing education system.ÌýThere is substantial evidence evaluating Reading Recovery’s effectiveness with the lowest-attaining pupils in a wide range of educational contexts.Ìý Here are the most recent.

Continued progress

The goal of Reading Recovery is that children not only catch up with their peers but sustain those gains, remaining in the average band of literacy attainment. Many research and evaluation studies demonstrate that Reading Recovery students maintain and improve their gains in the years following Reading Recovery.

Cost-effectiveness

Given the competing demands on education budgets, literacy interventions need to be cost-effective. No analysis has compared the different types of implementation for interventions (for example, small-group instruction with one-to-one instruction). In Reading Recovery, the long-term benefits of literacy achievement may significantly outweigh the short-term cost of instruction and teacher preparation. By intervening early, Reading Recovery reduces later costs in special education, later catch-up programmes, and has lasting effects. The local cost of providing Reading Recovery services for 12 to 20 weeks will be substantially less than the future costs of meeting the needs of large number of pupils who cannot access the curriculum.

Self-esteem

Improving attainment can lead to improved self-esteem. Research suggests that this association is particularly strong for Reading Recovery.

Reviews of research

With more than 30 years of data, Reading Recovery is the world’s most widely researched early literacy intervention. There are many summaries of research studies to date that enable us to identify trends and determine areas for further research.
