Empowering Every Learner with Text to Speech
Education should be a journey of growth and confidence-building—not one of unnecessary barriers. But for many students, particularly those with learning differences such as dyslexia or those learning in a second language (ESL/EAL), daily classroom life, tests and assessments can feel like an insurmountable challenge.
With ReadSpeaker’s voice solutions, all students gain access to a comprehensive literacy toolkit that supports them throughout their learning journey—right up to high-stakes exams at 16, 18, and into Higher Education. More than just Text-to-Speech (TTS), ReadSpeaker TextAid fosters independence, comprehension, and confidence in daily schoolwork while ensuring that students have the tools they need to perform at their best on exam day.
Bridging the Gap Between Everyday Learning & Exams
For teachers, institutions, and parents, ensuring consistent and approved accessibility support—whether in the classroom or under exam conditions—is crucial. ReadSpeaker TextAid is approved and recognised by the Joint Council for Qualifications (JCQ), meaning schools can confidently implement its use in statutory assessments.
With Exam Mode, educators can customize or restrict specific features while ensuring students still receive the reading support they need. The tool is also compatible with locked browsers and secure proctoring systems, so students can stay focused without distractions.
A Student’s Perspective: The Exam-Day Challenge
Imagine this:
You’ve worked hard. You’ve practiced. You’ve found the right support tools that make reading and studying manageable, even enjoyable. You’ve used these tools in class, for assignments, and in preparation for tests. You finally feel on a level playing field with your peers.
Then exam day arrives.
Your accommodations are in place. But suddenly, you learn that your trusted text-to-speech tool isn’t approved by the exam board. The confidence you built crumbles, and you’re left struggling through the assessment without the support you’ve relied on all year.
This is the avoidable scenario that ReadSpeaker TextAid helps prevent.
With ReadSpeaker TextAid, students can use the same accessible tools they rely on daily—ensuring continuity, confidence, and success, even in exams.

By integrating Text-to-Speech technology, ReadSpeaker TextAid enables students to listen to an audio version of any text while following along with synchronized highlighting. This bimodal learning approach (visual + auditory input) is proven to improve comprehension, retention, and engagement.
Key Features That Drive Success:
Why Accessibility in Exams Matters
The principal beneficiaries of any assessment regime ought to be the pupils themselves. Yet, many students still face unnecessary obstacles during exams—obstacles that ReadSpeaker TextAid removes. By ensuring that learning support extends into assessments, we give every student the best chance to succeed.
