Developing English GDS through Classic Literature
It can be difficult to challenge strong readers at primary, because they often run out of age-appropriate material to read.

- Develop a richer and more sophisticated understanding of vocabulary and grammar
- Investigate and deepen knowledge in core and foundation subjects
- Increase enthusiasm for higher-attaining children
