Our magazines are...
... inspirational
This is the first time I have read a Literacy Time Plus and I am really impressed. I think the magazine and resources are so user friendly that they are a joy to put into planning, or pass on to other members of staff, as their use is definitely a time saving ease rather than an onerous burden. The inclusion of the group reading texts was wonderful. The children loved looking at them and because a full set was there, again it was a great immediate resource which in a busy KS1 classroom is god-send! Thank you.

You need these magazines. They are there alongside the heap of QCA and other national education documents. Difference is, the magazines are about teaching.

... an invaluable source of information
[I] really find the interactive websites great to use. The Scholastic website is a mine of information which I use regularly, and I have particularly enjoyed this issue’s activities on the web. The ‘plus’ side of the magazine is a definite bonus!

There was so much in it I had to read it twice and then again! Brilliant.
