Creating a reading culture

All pupils benefit from the whole-school prioritisation of reading and the development of a strong reading culture. This is underpinned by suitable book recommendations, identifying role models among teaching staff and regular reading time in form periods and within a dedicated library space. By covering many subject areas, including social issues outside of school, pupils learn to appreciate that reading has a place in many aspects of life, and helps them develop as well-rounded individuals, receptive to new ideas.
