Research

Our research and evaluation helps us to continually learn about how to inspire children to read for pleasure.

Why is it important to share books, rhymes and stories with babies? How can you encourage secondary school children to pick up a book? What difference do BookTrust programmes make to the reading habits of children and families? Our research and evaluation helps us to answer questions like these so that we can support every child to experience the joy of reading and its social, emotional and intellectual benefits.

We continue to work closely with our partners, year on year, to evaluate our universal and targeted programmes.
