Abstract

The final chapter synthesises the data explored in Chapters 4, 5, 6, and 7, in order to create a table which demonstrates the stages of the spiral progression framework. This should be an accessible model in supporting teachers to further develop the use of film in the primary curriculum. It emphasises the need for the framework to be a spiral model, as children will move around the stages, depending on the complexity of the text, and it revisits how this can be useful in supporting children to transfer their reading skills across a range of media. It explores the comparisons which can be made between the reading of print and film. It also considers the limitations of this study, the scope for future research and the implications for policy and practice.
