Περίληψη: Levels of reading enjoyment and daily reading among children and young people have been falling for some time and are now at their lowest point in over 20 years (Clark et al, 2025). Adolescence is a key point at which reading habits weaken and reading becomes less embedded in young people's everyday lives. This report draws on data from the 2025 Annual Literacy Survey, including responses from more than 80,000 young people aged 11 to 16 and over 46,000 written comments. It explores how reading enjoyment and reading habits change during adolescence and uses young people's own words to understand their experiences of reading. The report looks at what reading offers young people, what makes it harder to read regularly, and what helps reading fit into their lives. It aims to build a clearer picture of teenage reading and how it can be supported during adolescence. While it looks at patterns across all young people, it takes a closer look at boys' experiences, reflecting evidence that boys' reading enjoyment is particularly low during adolescence and asking questions about how boys relate to reading at this stage of life.
