We’re going to use role modelsBecause NLT research shows:
11.
• Boys are twice as likely to say that cool kids at school and sports people can inspire them to read
• Young people from poorer backgrounds are twice as likely to say their role model is a sportsperson
• Other celebrities are influential but significantly lower
Footballers influenceNLT research shows:
12.
13. Project outcomesWhat will we achieve?
•Improved attitudes towards reading and literature•Improved confidence in reading, writing, speaking and listening•Increased reading enjoyment•Knowledge of own preferences (diversification of book choice)•Knowledge of the range of literature that can be accessed •Increased writing enjoyment•Changed reading behaviour (increased reading frequency,
increases in social interactions around reading, also as a result of role-
model influence)•Improved perceptions of reading ability•Improved perceptions of writing ability•Increased use of local libraries and their resources (increased
library membership for participants and their families)
Premier League Reading StarsOutcomes for 2012:

So will Premier League Reading Stars work? What our online evaluations showed from 2010
15.
•96% of children said they will read more regularly
because of participating in Premier League Reading
Stars.•71% of children say they now read more because
they know that footballers read.•88% of children said that they will go to their library
more because of PLRS
•Full report available to download
16. The kick offThat’s the why. Here’s the how.
Premier League Reading StarsHow it works:
17.Each delivery setting...…collects and logs reading data on their participating pupils…...delivers 10 football-themed literacy sessions including, where
possible, a visit to a library and a visit from an author or similar……encourages and supports pupils to take part in the online
challenges……submits end of project data for the evaluation
To support this activity each Premier League Club...•...nominates one Reading Champion...•...who chooses one children’s and one adults’ book...•...and gives us a quote about why he loves reading and why he
chose those titles…•…and sets 5 challenges for pupils, hosted online
18.
Playing by the rulesHow Premier League Reading Stars
supports the Curriculum
19. Who gets to play? Schools, libraries and football clubs with high free
school meals and low level 4 / 5 levels
20.
•Who’s in the squad? Reluctant readers Football fans Low level literacy You have enough resources for 32 pupils
21.
•When and where to deliver During normal literacy / English lessons In school time but not in these specific lessons In breakfast / homework / lunch clubs (libraries too) Somewhere other than the regular classroom? School library? Computer suite? Music room? Create displays and re-brand the area: ‘The Reading Stars Dressing Room’ or similar
22.
Parents on the touchline An ideal way to involve parents. Invite them to: Celebratory event Visit to library / trip An author event If held out of hours, they could even participate
