Review

"Last year I taught year 5 and many of the children achieved level 5 by the end of the year. I think that the expectation is very high with the programme."

--Katharine Young, Elmhurst Primary School, London

"It's very well structured so that any teacher can pick up the Handbook, which is vital, and work with it very easily. All children are challenged the whole time. There's really good questioning on all different levels to ensure children are being challenged appropriately."

--Jenny Rolnick, Eastbury Farm Primary School, Middlesex

"There are a lot of different activities so the teaching never gets boring. The children themselves have been so enthusiastic because the subject matter itself covers things that they are really interested in."

--Nia Williams, Elmhurst Primary School, London

"Read Write Inc. actually teaches children to read and write. We love using this programme because children achieve so much so quickly. They want to read and write. It's the best literacy programme we have ever known."

--Lorna Jackson, Headteacher, Maryland Primary School

"There are many dimensions to your programme that support teaching and learning ... The successful teaching that has been evident since September has had beneficial effects on learning and behaviour across the school."

--Sue Watts, Furrow Community School
