Newtown High School, Powys

We have just started using Lexia PowerUp and have been very impressed with the efficient service provided by Lexia. The training is well-structured and clear, and any queries are dealt with quickly. The support has been great.

The program itself is very straightforward to use and it’s been lovely to see pupils, who can be reluctant to complete written tasks, engaging well. There are 1000s of varied activities, and I particularly like the fact that each pupil has an individualised program to follow, once they’ve completed the auto-assessment. Minimal staff input is needed, as pupils work independently through the levels. However, staff are alerted if a pupil is struggling with a particular activity, and can then intervene to give additional support. The reports provided by the program are informative and will provide useful feedback for staff and parents alike.

We are looking forward to being able to support pupils to catch up on and improve, their literacy skills, especially as their learning has been impacted by lockdown periods. Pupils can access the program from home, and I am sure that all of this will provide additional reassurance to parents.
