A virtual literacy programme will be delivered to 330 pupil premium pupils in Lambeth over three years, with the aim of improving literacy, confidence and perseverance. The pupils, called Young Pirates,?will be referred to the programme by at least 5 Lambeth schools. The Lambeth Young Pirates will meet on a ?Virtual Ship?, an online learning platform, for weekly after-school sessions. They will access the platform either at home or school and will be given access to technology where it is lacking. Teachers and trained volunteers will engage pupils in group and one-to-one reading and writing. Each term the Young Pirates will work on continually improving a story and poem that will form part of a published product: a book, film or podcast. The published products will be launched at end of term celebration events for the Lambeth Young Pirates, their families and teachers.
