The Every Child a Reader (ECaR) programme involves training of 'Reading Recovery' teachers who deliver daily one-to-one reading recovery teaching for children with the most severe difficulties. These teachers also provide training, coaching and support to other adults (usually teaching assistants) who deliver lighter-touch interventions such as Fischer Family Trust Wave 3, Better Reading Partnership and Early Literacy Support (ELS) for children with less-severe needs.

The toolkit will provide advice and guidance on how to introduce and implement the effective rollout of ECaR.

ECaR works best where it is seen as a school improvement strategy that can impact on all children, rather than just an intervention for children with the greatest difficulties.
