Support your students in Key Stage 3 English by helping them to access the KS3 curriculum and develop their reading skills in a clear and organised way.

The Aiming for series provides targeted support for all ability levels to help every student move forward from their achievement at Key Stage 2 towards GCSE success.

Aiming for Reading Book 1 is most suitable for those students who need more support to access KS3 and who may be below age-related expectations. It offers student-friendly explanations and activities to build, develop and extend students’ literacy skills, showing them precisely what they need to do to progress.

Whether you're looking for a one-off lesson, snappy starters or a longer KS3 programme of study, these flexible resources are designed to fit around the needs of your teaching and your classes.

It will help you to:

  • target areas of underperformance, with a chapter on each key reading skill written at the right level by experienced teachers and consultants
  • develop the essential reading and commentary skills with clear, accessible explanations, inspiring examples and lively follow-up activities
  • build confidence in grammar analysis by exploring the effects of writers’ choices
  • motivate and engage students, with exciting stimulus texts, fresh approaches to learning and a clear, colourful layout
  • embed Assessment for Learning in your day-to-day teaching, with clear learning objectives, criteria for self and peer assessment on every double-page, and end of chapter checklists to help students understand how to progress
  • gather evidence for periodic assessments, with the ‘Apply your skills’ tasks designed to build writing stamina and independence
  • plan ahead without the stress, with ready-to-use double-page lessons and a teacher guide at the back of the book
  • support the transition to Key Stage 3 by reinforcing and building on the reading skills taught at Key Stage 2
  • lay the foundations for GCSE success, with coverage of new skills such as summary and synthesis, and an expanded focus on Shakespeare and literary non-fiction.
