These are quite old books and they don't seem to be listed on the comparison sheet I've got.
Maybe someone else will know though.

I really liked the New Way books (they've been around since the 50s, used to be called The Gay Way then, and I read some of them).

I'm not sure of ORT or book band colour equivalence. There's a arch of the different colours in New Way printed on the back cover - where in the arch is yellow?

Thanks between blue and violet

I 'be been trying to find out for you online. According to chat on TES forums, a child reading New Way blue at start of year 2 would be on track for a level 2b by the end of the year (presumably on a "higher" colour by then). According to an ORT equivalence chart, 2b is levels 7-10 ORT, and 2b is "Gold" in NC book bands.

New Way Gold, as the next stage up from blue, is probably at a similar level.

Ready to be shot down by other posters though, as I might have wrong assumptions in this!
