Yes, of course. You can change your child’s reading level anytime by going into the ‘My Account’ area and selecting ‘Change Child Details’. You will see that the Book Band Level can be edited. This Book Band level will then be used when creating your child’s next box. Alternatively, you can send us a note and we will adjust the level for you.

Please note that in order to keep children progressing, we will also change your child’s reading level, but we will let you know when we think the time is right to do this. We make this decision based on the National Curriculum and the length of time children are usually on each book band before it is time to move on. 

Any requests or updates to Book Band level must be made before the 14th of the month if you want the next month updated. 

 

Yes of course. When you get started, you will be able to add a note about your child’s reading level so you can let us know where you think they should start. Please keep in mind the advice about how you know if a reading level is too easy, hard or just right.

All schools encourage children to read at home. Many schools insist that the child stays on the school assigned reading level in school (they may have many reasons for this such as wanting the child to explore a different genre at that level or they are focusing on expression and fluency) but they are more than happy for you to pursue your own books at home. These could be at a different reading level for consolidation or extension. Remember all reading practise is great practise!
