As part of World Book Day 2023, all students in Years 7-9 received a free book from our Academy Librarian and spent the day focusing on reading activities in all lessons.

Students were able to choose from a selection of books with genres from fantasy and drama to comedy. The aim of the annual World Book day is to promote reading for pleasure by offering every child and young person the opportunity to have a book of their own. Reading for pleasure is the single biggest indicator of a child’s future success – more than their family circumstances, their parents’ educational background or their income.
