What Kids are Reading

According to the annual study, 'What Kids are Reading', secondary school pupils are being “seriously under-challenged” by the difficulty of the books they are given to read. The report on the book-reading habits of children in British schools, suggests that teachers must do more to encourage students to read demanding literature.

To support children's reading, various guides and resources for parents and teachers can be downloaded at the Read for Pleasure website, which also provides advice on how to create a reading culture, literacy in the curriculum and preparing for Ofsted.
