IDL for Primary Schools

IDL is used in thousands of primary schools across the UK. Our software was designed to help pupils improve their reading, spelling and mathematical skills as well as their wellbeing.

Many of our schools use IDL with their SEN learners or those who are falling behind. We’ve also seen lots of success in schools that use IDL as a whole-school solution to improve skills in these core areas that are vital to the development of young people.

The IDL impact

IDL is easy to use, helping pupils to become independent learners at an early age. This is proven to increase their confidence and self-esteem and improve their approach to learning.

Numerous case studies have measured the impact of IDL and its use in primary schools. The results have consistently shown that pupil’s ability significantly improves, for example after 26 hours of using IDL Literacy, pupils’ reading and spelling ages increase by an average of 11 months.
