I gave Lexia a score of 10 because it has had a transformative impact on our students’ language development and overall literacy skills. The program is highly engaging, adaptive, and evidence-based, which means every learner receives targeted support at their level. We’ve seen measurable improvements in vocabulary, comprehension, and phonics, and students who were previously below expectations are now closing gaps and gaining confidence. The data reports are easy to use and provide strong evidence for progress, which supports our school improvement goals. Overall, Lexia has become an essential tool for raising attainment and fostering a love for reading.

Pame Muñoz-cabrera found Lexia Reading Skills Software:
  • Builds student knowledge
    Growth in Phonics and Word Recognition: Lexia’s structured approach has helped students master phonics patterns, which is evident in their ability to spell and pronounce new words accurately during writing and speaking activities. Enhanced Confidence in Language Use: Students are using more complex sentence structures in oral and written tasks. Teachers have observed that they now attempt to express ideas with greater clarity and creativity. Improved Vocabulary and Comprehension: Students are demonstrating a richer vocabulary and better understanding of texts. For example, learners who previously struggled with decoding are now confidently reading grade-level passages and explaining key ideas.
  • Reduces attainment gap
    Targeted Support for EAL Learners: Lexia’s adaptive activities have helped newcomer and bilingual students build foundational language skills quickly, allowing them to participate more confidently in mainstream lessons. Improved Confidence and Engagement: Students who struggled most are now more engaged in literacy tasks, which has led to better performance in cross-curricular subjects that rely on reading and language.
  • Provides school data
    Evidence for Reporting and Inspection: Lexia reports have strengthened evidence for internal evaluations and external inspections, demonstrating impact on attainment and progress for all groups, including EAL and SEN.
  • Improves attainment
    Lexia has had a significant positive impact on our students’ language development. We’ve seen measurable improvements in vocabulary, reading fluency, and comprehension, particularly among EAL learners and those previously below age-related expectations. The program has helped narrow attainment gaps and provided clear, data-driven evidence of progress, supporting our whole-school literacy goals.
  • Improves teaching efficiency
    Lexia has had a transformative impact on our students and school data. We have seen clear improvements in vocabulary, comprehension, and phonics skills, with many pupils moving up one or more reading levels within a term. This progress is especially evident among lower-attaining and EAL learners, who are now closing the attainment gap and engaging more confidently in classroom activities. School data reflects these gains through higher benchmark scores, reduced need for intensive interventions, and positive trends in progress monitoring across cohorts. Lexia’s adaptive approach not only strengthens language development but also provides robust evidence for reporting and inspection, supporting our whole-school improvement goal.
