The national curriculum states that teachers are expected to encourage pupils to develop the habit of reading widely. It emphasises the importance of pupils listening to, discussing, and reading a wide range of stories, poems, plays and information books for themselves as their fluency increases.<\/p> The department has not undertaken research on the specific contribution or role of audiobooks. However, we welcome their use alongside other formats of books.<\/p>
