I've said this before, but I'll say it again. READING FOR PLEASURE has the biggest positive impact of any factor on children's life chances. So if you want to change their lives forever - make books & reading central to everything you do. And let them just enjoy it! #literacy

I don't believe there's such any thing as good reading and bad reading. It's all reading, and it's all good! If we want kids to be readers, we have to respect their rights as readers. Let reading be a pleasure, and they'll be readers forever! #literacy

What a dream to work with the team at @AshmolePrimary developing their teaching of vocabulary with @Literacy_Trust. 🧡
Their active participation and the fact they remained focused even when it began to snow was impressive! Plus, their drinking glasses match my Matilda dress. 🙌🏾
