AR Level – 4.1 (What is an AR level?)

(Accelerated Reader is a computer programme used in some schools for monitoring and managing children’s independent reading practice.

We send all our books to be levelled so any schools using the programme can incorporate our books into their reading scheme.

The AR level of a book does not relate to or impact its Reading Age (RA) or Interest Age (IA).)
