Overall the evaluations show that Read, Write, Count successfully supports families to read, write and count together for fun, especially for those families where need is greatest – one teacher told the evaluator, 'for some of our children, they will never be bought books and they will have very little access to literature so, for those children in particular, it is invaluable … these bags provide an essential way to provide books for the some of our most vulnerable learners.'
