The Promising Practices Network (PPN) has updated information on Reading Recovery and awarded a “proven” rating. PPN reviewed research evidence of programs and practices that are proven to improve outcomes for children. All programs rated are reviewed to ensure evidence of positive effects.
This announcement adds to the number of research reviews that have reported strong evidence of Reading Recovery’s effectiveness. Other review agencies include the What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) in 2007 and 2008, the National Center on Response to Intervention (NCRTI) in 2011, and the National Center on Intensive Intervention (NCII) in 2012.
