Wider Reading at Knutsford Academy
Reading a wide range of texts is a key factor in students making progress in their literacy as students develop their understanding of characters, themes and relationships; see how texts can be structured and organised effectively and explore a range of vocabulary.
​
The English Faculty dedicates the start of every lesson to read and discuss their reading in a positive environment. Please see below the relevant wider reading lists for Key Stage 3 students. These lists have been created by the English Faculty to complement the areas of study for each year group, helping to extend and broaden understanding of the key thematic areas.
