Basic Skills

The Reading and Number Partners programmes are aimed at Primary School children, but could be equally relevant in secondary schools.

The Reading Partners material can be used by you to work directly with a school, for Number Partners you will need to contact their local intermediary who will offer additional training and resource.  To find the local contact email Number Partners.

Once a child enjoys using these basic skills they will be well on the way to developing their potential.
