Teach Primary

Teach Reading & Writing is the definitive guide for primary school teachers on how to raise attainment and enthusiasm in the core subject of English.

Teach Reading & Writing


With primary schools held to account for their results in English, Teach Reading & Writing is a resource valued by teachers across England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Copies are placed in the hands of nearly every literacy coordinator and library manager within primary schools nationwide. Combined with a digital edition that᾿s free to download, messages from our advertisers are given a comprehensive platform.

Editorial from experts such as Pie Corbett, Nikki Gamble and Shirley Clarke helps teachers to raise attainment in areas including phonics, reading comprehension, GaPS and composition – all of which dovetails with key English resources being marketed to schools. We also discuss improvements to libraries and library systems and how to make sure a school᾿s collection of books works hard to challenge students and encourage a love of reading. Teachers look to us to find out which titles are a must for their shelves. 

Filled with instantly recognisable illustrations from the likes of Axel Scheffler, Quentin Blake and Lauren Child, it᾿s a visually striking publication that᾿s kept in libraries and staffrooms throughout the year.
