Encouraging reading for pleasure in your school is an important way to drive improvement. There is strong evidence linking reading and educational outcomes, as well as other benefits such as positive impacts on well-being. Reading can be a great strategy for recovery and is a proven way of reducing stress, as well as encouraging creativity across the curriculum. Creating a reading culture is a key way of reaping these benefits for you and your pupils.
Join Scottish Book Trust at a session on how to take the first steps towards building a reading culture in your setting and the importance of reading for pleasure. Find out about the theory behind reading for pleasure, how to start your reading journey and hear about the resources and programmes at Scottish Book Trust which will support you, including an introduction to our ‘Reading Schools’ accreditation programme. We will be joined by a guest presenter from Lybster Primary School who are a Silver Level Reading School, to share with you their enthusiasm for and experience of their reading journey with Scottish Book Trust.
Training will be offered twice.
The first will be on Wednesday 6th December 2023 16:00 t0 17:00
The second will be on Wednesday 7th February 2024 16:00 to 17:00
