Rapid Plus is an exciting series of finely levelled books and software for English Language Learners and struggling readers.
- Developed in consultation with Dee Reid, a former English teacher and co-founder of the hugely successful Catch Up programme.
- A cutting-edge series for students between reading ages 6 to 9, helping them make two levels of progress.
- Age-appropriate content, offering a huge variety of genres and art styles, rigorously levelled and trialled with 11-14 year-old students.
- Innovative software is an easy, innovative way for SEN students to practise their reading skills independently, helping to build their confidence.
- Teacher support with a strong focus on comprehension, designed to work for both specialists and non-specialists, with step-by-step support for reading sessions and end of stage assessments.
"Rapid Plus has been an outstanding tool for us to encourage reluctant readers and also to develop the skills of weaker readers who want to read but struggle to do so. The Rapid Plus software has been of particular use, and is an excellent motivational tool for helping those for whom reading is a difficulty".
