“Children’s writing in classes using PoR texts has improved. All children were very positive and engaged with the texts; inspired to write and inspired to read! High quality texts have meant writing outcomes are of a much better standard."
Headteacher, Leverington Primary Academy

“PoR reinforces the importance of choosing the right texts to engage, captivate and inspire the children in your class. It also gave me back the confidence to teach in the way I know is best for my pupils.”
Teacher,

“Children are being exposed to texts maybe they wouldn’t have been before. The texts cover different cultures and themes which has opened the children’s eyes to the world around them. There are engaging texts for boys.”
