The Reading Competition

Think you can out-read your whole class?

Reading Riot challenges schools to compete in live reading speed and comprehension battles. Real rankings. Real bragging rights. Real results.

Who it's for

Something for everyone

Whether you're competing, teaching, or supporting — Reading Riot has a role for you.

The competition is on.

Race through reading passages as fast as you can — then prove you understood them. Top your school. Top your region. Top the country. The Reading Riot champion title is waiting.

Real skills

Watch yourself get faster

Your reading speed and comprehension are tracked across every challenge. See your improvement over time.

Real results, zero marking.

Reading Riot runs the competition. You see the outcomes. Track performance across your class from a teacher dashboard — no extra admin, no extra workload.

Set up your class

Takes less than 5 minutes to set up. No per-student IT configuration needed.

Class-wide progress tracking

See which students are improving, which need support, and how your school performs in an international competition — all from one dashboard.

Flexible competition schedule

Each competition round leading up to the finals takes place in week-long intervals. Designed to fit your classroom calendar, not override it.

I think the entire Reading Riot finals has been great. It is absolutely fantastic to see kids from all over the country — an incredibly diverse group of students — grabbing life by the scruff of the neck, applying themselves, and doing so incredibly well.

Screen time that actually helps.

Reading Riot is a structured academic initiative, not a social platform. Your child competes with classmates in a school-supervised challenge — building reading skills they'll use for life.

Safe

School-administered and child-safe

All access is managed by your child's school. No social features, no advertising, no third-party data sharing.

Proven

Measurable academic outcomes

Students show consistent improvements in reading fluency and comprehension — skills that flow directly into academic results.

Aligned

Age-appropriate, educator-approved

All content meets international literacy standards and is appropriate for your child's grade level.
