Literacy Gold & Talk Stars

What they do

Literacy Gold & Talk Stars online programs support pupils to improve reading and language. Suitable for pupils aged 3-14

What we think

Literacy Gold & Talk Stars offers a strong, evidence-based approach to improving reading and language development. It will be a valuable resource for schools seeking effective, targeted interventions.

How they help

Literacy Gold - Reach the pupils that phonics leaves behind.

Even with high-quality phonics, not every child becomes a fluent reader. Rather than giving struggling readers more phonics, why not focus on improving the skills that these pupils are usually missing?

Literacy Gold is a tailored reading intervention. On average, reading improves by 12 months in just one term

As well as reading Literacy Gold also contains a dyslexia screener and interventions for spelling and comprehension.

Our brand new intervention, Talk Stars, helps younger children talk more.

No planning, preparation or training required for any of our interventions.

What members say

“Literacy Gold is like nothing I have used before and has shown vast improvements with a variety of age groups. With some children the age gap had hugely reduced, one child by 62 months in only two terms. Quite amazing!”

Dawn Hancock, Alsager Highfields Community Primary School

“The Literacy Gold package is the single most important and effective program we run at school.”

George Law, Down Hall Primary School

“I have never found another program that replicates what we would do in a specialist 1:1 intervention. This does. It's fun but very targeted.”

Kate Bodle, St Mary's School
