Our vision is that every child should learn to read well.

1 in 4 primary school children in England fail to reach the expected standard of reading by the age of 11. This leaves them unable to access their secondary education fully, which will have life long consequences. 

Schoolreaders recruits, places and supports volunteers to go to local primary schools and  provide free, weekly, one-to-one reading support for children, prioritising those who need this extra support the most. 

"It makes me
feel proud"
