Rhythm for Reading is a group reading intervention programme for 5 to 15 year olds that uniquely doesn't use words!

This rhythm-based approach has been researched in a five year study at UCL Institute of Education.

The Rhythm for Reading programme streams a system of resources into classrooms via a secure portal, enabling teachers to accelerate students’ phonological processing, reading accuracy, fluency, engagement and comprehension.
