Not sure if this counts as 'different' but...

If a pupil can't decode after plenty of high-quality instruction, the appropriate response should be to assess what aspect(s) of decoding they are struggling with and target this with explicit teaching and plenty of practice.

While reading comprehension strategy instruction may be of limited value, specifically teaching students how to make inferences seems to improve general comprehension (d=0.58), inferential comprehension (d=0.68) and literal comprehension (d=0.28):
