Whole school
Access your school reading data
Teachers can quickly see an overview of the whole school's reading. This allows strategic interventions and reading celebrations that couldn't be achieved with paper reading logs.
National comparison
National comparison: reading frequency
Teachers can quickly compare their school's reading frequency to other BoomReader schools. This allows schools to improve reading frequency at whole-school level.
The BoomReader National Average is a rolling average based on real-time reading log data from thousands of pupils across the UK, so you can celebrate where you're above average and set realistic, achievable targets.
National comparison
National comparison: book completions
Teachers can quickly see how many books their school has completed compared to other BoomReader schools.
Group analysis
Demographic insights: whole school
Compare the reading of groups of children within the school, e.g. Pupil Premium, male and female, and SEND. This insightful analysis allows schools to strategically monitor reading habits and put focused interventions in place.
Classes
Compare class reading data
School leaders can compare the reading habits of up to five different classes to spot trends and plan interventions.
