Standards and Guidelines for Reading Recovery in Canada
The importance of the Standards and Guidelines lies in their
underlying rationales, which are understood and applied by trainers,
teacher leaders, and liaison administrators at each site.
Standards are deemed essential for assuring both quality
services to children and successful implementation. They are the
foundation upon which Reading Recovery is built. These are the musts
that research and practice throughout the world have proven to be
the essentials for successful implementation.
Guidelines have been shown to significantly support
program effectiveness and represent the means to achieving
successful implementation. Canadian guidelines were written in
collaboration with Reading Recovery teachers, teacher leaders,
trainers, and liaison administrators throughout Canada, the United
States, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. They are intended to be
informative to the cadre of personnel who are responsible for the
establishment and maintenance of effective Reading Recovery sites.
All Reading Recovery centres that annually meet the requirements
set forth in the
Standards and Guidelines for Reading Recovery in Canada,
including making application to the Canadian Institute of Reading
Recovery, are granted a 1-year royalty-free license annually to use
the term Reading Recovery.
