Report of two studies by Dr Marlynne Grant, England

Calling teachers, parents, tutors - in fact - anyone - who has a good news story to share. What difference has systematic synthetic phonics made to a school, class or child that you know?

We have also featured the work of Dr Marlynne Grant via our blog where you can see video footage of a talk she provided at a 'researchED' conference in 2014 - and where you can also find access to the slides for her talk:

It's good to see an article by journalist Richard Adams on Dr Marlynne Grant's studies showing the efficacy of Systematic Synthetic Phonics using the Sound Discovery programme:

New study is a vindication of the technique which teaches children to read using phonetic sounds rather than letters
