Used Lexia Reading Skills Software daily for 3-4 years

We really like it and are currently in our second 3 year subscription. Initially, we subscribed during Covid school closure and it enabled us to support and monitor the children's reading, whilst not in school. At the of the 3 years, we could not afford to renew. However, we were very lucky to secure private funding to pay for it - as they felt it was a valuable educational tool, and the children enjoyed it.

Rebecca Lyman found Lexia Reading Skills Software:
  • Slightly reduces attainment gap
    Lexia enables children to access high-quality, focused reading tasks at home (as well as school). The fun graphics and 'games' appearance of the content, make children want to complete the tasks...not realising that they are reading. For some children, where they might not be reading at home, this can be a great 'hidden' way to get them to read - without realising.
  • Moderately builds student knowledge
    Our reading results are consistently above national and Lexia is one of the strategies we use alongside a well-designed curriculum, where high-quality texts are central.
  • Slightly improves attainment
    Lexia is one of several strategies we use in school. Combined together, they had a big impact. Our results are strong.
  • Significantly provides school data
    We use the teacher's portal to access whole-school, cohort and individual data. Children receive the certificates in assembly. We give it a high profile. Analysis of the data helps us to know where some children might need additional support - and then implement interventions.
  • Significantly improves teaching efficiency
    I am Headteacher of two very small (only 100 in total) small schools. All classes are mixed age and Lexia is one tool we use to enable children to access high-quality learning, whilst the teacher may be working with different groups - confident that they are still maximising their learning time.
