Parry, Becky – Education 3-13, 2016
This paper challenges the reductive notion of children as "efferent" readers who learn to decode written language in order to "take away" knowledge. This anachronistic idea has become entrenched in current UK curriculum and education policy. However, it is well established that decoding letters and sounds is only one aspect of…

Sohail, Samira – Journal of Education and Educational Development, 2015
