What School Leaders Are Saying About Ready Steady Write and Ready Steady Spell

“Literacy Counts have transformed the teaching of English at every level in our school (from teaching assistant, teachers to leadership). We cannot praise them enough.”

— J Savage, Deputy Headteacher, Banks Road

“For me, the proof of the success of these resources at Mill View is in the outcomes we are seeing for our disadvantaged learners. The scaffolding that the resources provides gives these children an additional advantage. These resources support staff in raising their expectations of all children and have raised engagement levels considerably in reading and writing.”
