Reading Trophies

Choose reading trophies for school reading challenges, classroom awards, book clubs and library events. Recognise a milestone, steady progress or a pupil’s enthusiasm for reading with an award suited to your presentation.

Planning reading awards

Decide what the award celebrates before choosing quantities. You might recognise completion of a reading challenge, improvement over a term, or regular participation. Set clear award titles for each group so pupils and families understand the achievement.

Check the current trophy range for sizes, prices and personalisation options. If several pupils will receive the same recognition, count every recipient and prepare any individual names together before ordering.

Reading trophy questions

What should I write on a reading trophy?

Include the school or event, achievement and year, such as “Reading Challenge — Outstanding Progress — 2026”. Add the pupil’s name if the chosen trophy has enough engraving space. Check spelling and the product’s personalisation choices.

Can I give awards for progress as well as achievement?

Yes. A reading presentation can recognise effort, improvement and completion as separate awards. Decide the criteria and wording in advance so each award is clear and consistent.

How do I plan awards for a whole class?

Count the pupils in each group and decide whether everyone gets the same award or different titles for particular achievements. Check current availability and the full cost for the quantity you need.
