At Literacy Counts, we are proud to be recognised by industry-leading awards for the impact of our literacy programmes in international and UK classrooms. Our resources continue to support schools in raising outcomes in reading, writing, phonics and spelling.

Most recently, Ready Steady Write and Ready Steady Spell were shortlisted for the BETT Awards 2025, celebrating their impact on digital learning in literacy. Beyond this, we also recognised by the Teach Primary and EYFS Awards, Education Resources Awards (ERA) and earlier BETT Awards.

Ready Steady Phonics, our DfE validated phonics scheme, was shortlisted twice at the Teach Primary and EYFS Awards 2024 and received an ERA 2025 finalist award too. Its success is supported by expertly crafted guidance, decodable texts and impactful training for schools.

In total, we were shortlisted four times for the ERA Awards 2025 across both EYFS and Primary categories – a reflection of the expertise and collaboration behind every Literacy Counts resource.
