National Reading Success for Godstowe

Godstowe’s love of and success in reading have been recognised in awards from the company that runs Accelerated Reader.  This year, nine of our classes appear on the Renaissance National Roll of Honour as Master Classes: IIL, IIR, LIIIB, LIIIL, 6C, 6D, 6F, 7J and 7K have all been rewarded for the amount of time they have spent reading and their consistently high quiz scores over most of the school year.  These girls have received pin badges to wear with pride on their collars. For the second year running, we have been awarded Master School status, putting us well into the top 20 schools out of the 5000 who use the Accelerated Reader scheme.  This is for success across all our classes. More than eight out of ten girls have averaged at least 85% in their quizzes this year, and our average time spent reading each day stands at 41 minutes per person - far higher than the 25 minutes required to qualify for the award. Our engraved Master School plaque is on display outside the Library.  Well done to everyone for this fantastic achievement!
