Why primary teachers trust Reading Plus

  • Personalised learning for every pupil

A rigorous baseline assessment matches pupils to texts at their just-right level and can self-select from a wide range of engaging, high-quality fiction, non-fiction and informational text types. 

  • Improves focus, fluency and reading stamina

Through structured, silent reading practice, pupils develop their comprehension-based reading speed, concentration, and confidence - essential for accessing longer and more complex texts and preparing for assessments.

  • Expands vocabulary and cross-curricular knowledge

With a broad range of texts covering science, history, geography, and more, pupils develop cross-curricular subject knowledge. Reading Plus builds vocabulary in context and enhances pupils' understanding of key curriculum content areas.

  • Clear, curriculum-aligned insight for teachers

Built-in summative and formative assessments and easy-to-use reports provide actionable data linked to the KS2 content domains, enabling you to easily identify skills gaps, plan targeted interventions and track progress throughout the year.

What teachers are saying about Reading Plus

Supporting SATs preperations

  • Fluency for reading paper readiness

To complete the reading SATs paper successfully, pupils need to be able to read at a rate of over 185 words per minute. Reading Plus is the only programme that directly targets silent reading fluency, helping pupils build the speed and stamina they need to confidently finish the reading paper. 

  • Guided Window technology

The Guided Window scaffolds students' visual attention, modelling fluent silent reading by guiding their eyes across the text, much like using a finger or index card. This support helps pupils overcome non-fluent reading habits, gradually increasing reading fluency and comprehension so they can focus on understanding and enjoying what they read. 

Watch the video to see an example of the Guided Window set at 185 words per minute.

  • Real-time data to guide support

Reading Plus provides real-time insights aligned to the national curriculum and KS2 content domains. Teachers can track progress, group pupils by need, and close learning gaps before SATs arrive.

  • Proven to raise outcomes for all learners

Whether your pupils are working at age-related expectations, eligible for pupil premium, speak English as an additional language, or have SEND, Reading Plus has been shown to accelerate progress and raise attainment.

Proven results  

We partnered with Derby Research School and Spencer Academies Trust to evaluate the impact of Reading Plus across a diverse pupil population - and the results speak for themselves:

  • Pupils eligible for Pupil Premium made 97% more progress with Reading Plus than those who didn’t use the program

  • Boys using Reading Plus saw 45% more progress than those without it

  • EAL and SEND pupils also made significantly greater gains compared to their peers not using Reading Plus

We're also taking part in an Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) impact evaluation trial, testing the efficacy of Reading Plus with Year 5 pupils. Results from this large-scale study will be released in Spring 2026.

These findings - and our ongoing research - demonstrate the measurable difference Reading Plus makes in pupils’ reading confidence, fluency and comprehension.
