For teachers and school coordinators

Teacher Resource Pack

A simple, privacy-conscious toolkit for helping students participate online or on paper, keeping Read for Jarjum numbers handy and keeping the whole class moving together.

The student-to-teacher handover

How a student joins and gives you their number

Students can participate online or on paper. Readers who register online receive one unique Read for Jarjum number; younger students can use the printable Reading Log without creating an online profile.

1

Find the school

The student or their parent visits Participating Schools, opens the school team page and selects Join this team.

2

Register safely

An adult completes the form using a safe public display name, such as a first name, family, class or group name.

3

Receive one number

The participant receives their unique Read for Jarjum number and fundraising share link immediately, with the same details sent by email.

4

Tell the teacher

The student gives their Read for Jarjum number to their teacher. A screenshot, printed confirmation or the confirmation email is fine.

5

Update the register

The teacher records the student’s real name beside the number in the private class register. New students can join at any time.

Ready to use

Start with the essentials

Type directly into the highlighted fields, or print blank copies and write by hand. Nothing entered on this page is sent to Redfern Jarjum College or stored online.

2

Private class register

A landscape A4 record matching real student names with Read for Jarjum numbers, safe public names, links and goals.

3

Student number cards

Eight optional cut-out cards per A4 page, so a teacher can give students a handy paper copy of their number and goal.

4

Student reading log

A printable 20-book challenge sheet with space for a Reader Number, reading goal and QR codes for logging reading and supporting the school team.

A safe recovery process using the confirmation email or private class register, with no public student-name search.

Student privacy comes first

Keep the class register private and never publish the match between a student’s real name and their Read for Jarjum number. Public campaign pages should use a safe display name and show combined school or class progress, not students’ full names.

Type, print and use

Click any pale field to type before printing. For the cleanest result, choose A4 paper and turn on background graphics in the print window.

A safe, simple recovery process

  2. Search the adult contact’s inbox for the subject “Your Read for Jarjum fundraiser details”.
  3. Ask your teacher or school coordinator to check the private class register.
  4. Once recovered, use that same number to set a goal, log reading and view progress.

For teachers and coordinators

  1. Verify the student privately using your normal school process.
  2. Find the number and share link on the private class register and provide them directly to the student or parent.
  3. Never publish the match between the student’s real name and their number.
