Accelerated Learning
- Category: News
- Created on 29 January 2015
Accelerated Reader is the most popular reading practice software in schools today. This innovative programme makes reading fun for struggling young readers. Progress is measured through quizzes, focusing on reading practice, vocabulary and literacy skills.
We are on our third year of the programme here at Maghull High and it has enabled staff to test, monitor and measure the growth of pupils reading ages through on-line testing and quizzing.
The LRC/Library has thousands of Accelerated Reader Books from reluctant readers to classic fiction and non-fiction across the years.
Reading lessons are incorporated into the timetable together with tutor time and intervention sessions. The pupils are encouraged to read for pleasure at home and parents can monitor their child’s progress on-line via the Home Connect service.

Computing Workshop
- Category: News
- Created on 16 December 2014
MyKindaCrowd and CragRats delivered a computing workshop on November 27th to year 8 students recently in partnership with Tata Consultancy Services (TCS)
TCs are the IT consulting arm of Tata Group
The students participated in several to gain practical insight into these IT trends and then in group they had the opportunity to develop their own app of the future and present it to the rest of the class
The course was delivered by Samantha Michaels and Owain Ford, with support from two colleagues from TCS.
Samantha commented:
“The MKC with TCS workshop at Maghull High was a great success! The year 8 students were full of enthusiasm and were engaged from the very start of the session. The students participated in group discussions and it was great to see so many hands up to answer questions! The groups came up with really great ideas and both the MKC and TCS team were really impressed by the work produced in such a small amount of time! The ideas were all things that the students had a passion for and were actually excited about!”
Just some of the ideas for a new App
Where’s my Bus App to tell you if the bus is late, give alternative routes, tell you how long it might take to walk
•Applying Style
•Automatic emails sent from your favourite stores, scan bar code, or take photos of items, footwear section, helps you decide what to wear based on weather and your style
•Id App- everything you ever wanted to know and have from 1D
Well done to all the students, it was a really fun, productive session!! Big congratulations to the winners of the App design:
Sophie Bresnahan, Anna Reed, Leah Rogers, and Jess Stephenson
