What is Reading Ahead?
Reading Ahead is a reading challenge for young people and adults delivered by libraries and learning settings. It can be run digitally or off-line with printed materials. Reading Ahead asks participants to choose six reads, these can be books, magazines, recipes, letters – anything! After completing each read, participants can share their thoughts on what they’ve read by filling out a review.
The programme includes a unique reading database to search for reads at the right reading level and a hub of supporting guidance, learning resources and promotional materials. Reading Ahead improves reading confidence, builds skills and encourages everyone to read more.
