Bringing Reading Schools Closer Together

Benefits

We are a forum focussed on collaborating across wider Reading, all phases and all structures of education, to improve outcomes for children.  We believe that regularly sharing best practice across organisations, in a local context, dramatically reduces the chances of schools underperforming.
