Hill View Infant Academy
Staff reported exceptionally strong engagement with Lexia Core5 Reading, with many children asking "When is Lexia?" at the start of the school day.
Warcop CE Primary School is a small rural school located in the Eden Valley, with around 85 pupils organised across four mixed-age classes. Like many rural schools, access to larger libraries and literacy resources can be more limited, making targeted reading support especially valuable.
The school noticed a huge impact upon starting the programme, particularly among lower attaining pupils who struggle with reading skills that may not have otherwise been reached in Guided Reading sessions.
Staff found that pupils engaged enthusiastically with Lexia Core5 Reading from the very beginning. Children particularly enjoyed earning certificates, celebrating their achievements and developing a strong sense of ownership over their own learning and progress.
