Who Uses AR Overview

"AR has completely revitalised the school's reading program, becoming a priority in the school budget and gaining a great amount of support from parents. Parents are thrilled, particularly those with children who never wanted to read!"

"Students are excited about reading and want to talk about it. It has grown beyond my wildest expectations. Overall classroom behaviour has improved dramatically because students never have 'nothing to do'. It really is taking on a life of its own with the whole community giving support."

“Students enjoy doing the quizzes. The children who weren’t borrowing from the library are now doing so because they want to, not just because we tell them to. AR also encourages the children to borrow books they normally wouldn’t choose.”
Jenny Kilby

"AR has increased vocabulary and comprehension. Students are much more inclined to read independently. More students are regularly borrowing from the library and reading more than just their English novels!”
