The UK's top-rated digital reading diary, feature-packed to help children love reading
The benefits of reading - from academic performance to mental well-being - are well documented. But how do we get children reading more? Luckily, we've thought about this a lot: Pageticker is the result of extensive research and development, and there's plenty of evidence that our approach works.
“Reading enjoyment is more important for children’s educational success than their family’s socio-economic status.” (OECD, 2002).
Why we Built Pageticker
Research shows a strong link between reading engagement and academic success, highlighting how important reading is for young minds. However, the 2024 National Literacy Trust survey revealed an alarming trend: reading enjoyment has dropped to just 35% of children - down from 43% the previous year, marking the lowest level ever recorded.

Pageticker was created with the mission to bring the joy back to reading, helping children develop habits that will fuel their curiosity and learning for life.
How does it work?
Build the habit
Not all children naturally love reading, but Pageticker can nudge them in the right direction. Through the dashboard, teachers send reminders that encourage students to read regularly at home and earn rewards.
Make it stick
As reading becomes part of a child's daily routine, Pageticker’s community features and personalised book suggestions keep them motivated and excited to explore new stories.
Inspire a reading community
Reading is contagious! Give book-loving students a platform to share recommendations and inspire classmates. One eager reader can start a community — help them spread the joy!
