What is Reading Plus? 

Reading Plus is a research-based online reading development programme that improves students' reading fluency, stamina, and comprehension. 

Used in over 1,400 schools in the UK, Reading Plus is an exciting part of children's reading journey. 

How does Reading Plus work? 

After completing an initial assessment, Reading Plus places each student at their correct reading level on the programme. Students can then select texts of different genres and types (fiction, non-fiction, informational) suited to their reading ability. After reading a text, students are asked ten comprehension questions. Text selections and questions adapt to reading levels as the students progress through the programme. Weekly assignments are set with personalised instructions for students, including visual skills development for eye-tracking, reading tasks for comprehension and fluency, and vocabulary tasks.
