Launch of our new Literacy Learning Resources to support Reading at Home
We are excited to share the launch of a new, dedicated Family Learning section of our website. Building on the education expertise of the charity, this new section has been specially developed to support families in helping their children develop strong reading, writing and communication skills.
Encouragement at home plays a vital and irreplaceable role in children’s learning but sometimes, parents are unsure as to how best to help their child. These new Family Learning pages provide a comprehensive guide to supporting children on their literacy journey, bringing together practical advice, engaging activities and reassuring guidance to help parents and carers feel confident supporting their child.

The carefully curated literacy content drawn from a wide range of sources includes ideas to encourage reading for pleasure, tips for building vocabulary, fluency and confidence, and activities that fit easily into everyday family life. They are designed to be clear, welcoming and accessible, with a focus on making literacy enjoyable. As well as bringing information on all the core literacy skills together in one place, there are also helpful links to other online resources, including videos and games which provide constructive options for screentime.
“Our online literacy resources are designed to support the full range of literacy development, from early language and communication through to reading, spelling, and writing. They are accessible and engaging for children of all ages, and give parents clear, supportive ways to reinforce learning at home. The goal is to help families strengthen the foundations that underpin literacy, while keeping learning enjoyable and meaningful.”
With thanks to our corporate partner Stellantis UK who has so generously helped to fund the development of this new resource.
