I don't understand it and hope some of you can give me some perspective.
My son is in year 7 of GS. In SEpt he was assessed with a reading age of 13.
He says he has to choose from a selection of books (Yellow band) and they are rubbish - he would never read any of them but when forced to choose something he has bought home:
James and the Giant Peach
Adam Blade Beast Quest.
Books for 7-8 year olds! My mind boggles.
He never read them, in fact those books didn't appeal to him when he was younger either.
