NLT found only 1 in 3 children 8-18 enjoy reading in their free time in 2024 – the lowest level by far since 2005.

Concerned about the impact this would have on future generations, as well as reading levels in her school, Claire Davies took charge of implementing DreamBox Reading Plus to transform reading.

Working at grassroots level with around 20 years’ experience working with young people across secondary, SEMH and primary settings, Claire has championed the adaptive online reading development programme, helping students make fantastic progress.

Joined by Reading Development Consultant, Nick Mills, Claire will cover:

• The current challenges of reading in schools.

• Her school's specific challenges - and how Reading Plus supported them.

• How Reading Plus supports schools to improve reading proficiency and reading for pleasure – and how your school can test the impact with a free four-week pilot.

"Our first practice SATs paper showed only 38% of children were at EXS. We've seen leaps and bounds in how Reading Plus is affecting how they answer. When we did our last practice paper in April, we had 74% of children at EXS or exceeding." – Claire.

Optimizing Patient Recruitment & Retention in Influenza Studies

Join Inizio Evoke and Professor Georgina Charlesworth of University College London’s (UCL) Faculty of Brain Sciences for an unmissable discussion on our revolutionary new report, Transforming Bias in Healthcare. This webinar will delve into the hidden epidemic of bias in healthcare and its profound impact on patient outcomes, offering actionable insights to address this critical issue. “It’s no exaggeration to say that bias kills,” asserts Corrina Safeio, President of Inizio Evoke. With alarming statistics suggesting that a million premature deaths in the UK over the last decade are linked to health inequality, the urgency of this research cannot be overstated. Our report, the first global systematic review of healthcare professional (HCP) bias, uniquely, for the first time, measures the impact on patient outcomes.  Led by our esteemed behavioural science strategists Fernanda Trevisan and Ellie Glew, they explore biases stemming from racial, gender, socioeconomic, and cultural prejudices.

Discover the shocking truths uncovered in our study: 
• Gender Bias: Women often receive substandard care compared to men.
• Age Bias: Older patients are frequently given less information and fewer treatment options.
• Racial and Ethnic Bias: Minority ethnic groups face significant disparities in care.
• And more…..

This webinar will explore how these biases influence diagnostic decisions, treatment plans, and patient interactions globally, and their implications for the pharmaceutical industry. Join Fernanda Trevisan, Ellie Glew and Prof. Georgina Charlesworth as they present comprehensive analyses and offer insights into what pharmaceutical companies can do to mitigate these biases.
