Loving the #ReadWithPride reading relay! Our teachers are listening eagerly to @LucyTheReader Paper and Hearts Society. Thank you to @HodderBooks for publishing such a great story. What are you reading @ChanningSchool and @CheltCollege?

Every weekday this #PrideMonth, libraries celebrate the #LGBTQ young adult fiction that we #ReadWithPride. Share your favourites and follow our relay of UK schools recommending great queer stories!

This play is amazing! Such a poignant, important look at finding a way to live your authentic self as a teenager. And an amazing monologue about tolerance near the end! #ReadWithPride @EvanPlacey

Resurrecting this account to join in the #ReadWithPride Relay! We love a good LGBTQIA+ book here and can’t wait to share some of our favourites 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Just starting to make booklists for all departments. Science actually asked for recommendations which was really quite exciting! Yes, I know, easily pleased 🤷🏼‍♀️😂 Maths to follow soon…

@SBTeaching @Team_English1 @MrTs_NQTs We have our 6th form team run it now. Can’t afford multiple copies of books so more book activities rather than all discussing the same book. Examine book covers, blurbs, what draws you to a particular book etc. Book bingo, Reading challenges. And crafts! Lots of crafts!

New Blog Post: School librarians supporting schools during lockdown. "The urgency I sensed in students’ borrowing that day reflected how much they already value reading – for comfort as well as for learning" #schoollibrarian #schoollibraries https://t.co/KfxAQ8jurD

I'm doing DAILY short readings and brief explanations of all of my 50 books on YouTube/Twitter over the next weeks. So far I've done this one and Real Cricket. You can find them all on my channel, here: https://t.co/mB2UZHFzF8

[National Literacy Trust @Literacy_Trust]

We will be updating Family Zone continuously to make sure it is the most useful resource for parents that it possibly can be. As schools close today, please do share the link with anyone you think may need it. https://t.co/MOCh7aughK

[Great School Libraries @GreatSchLibs]

We've been wondering what we can do in this time of crisis so have come together to offer support through our new 'ask a librarian' page on our website. Parents and teachers not sure where to find what you need? Just ask https://t.co/BlU6crot5T

[EdgbarrowLibrary @EdgbarrowLib]

Exams are fast approaching... We have a good range of revision guides if you’d like to come and have a look... 👀 @EdgbarrowSchool

[EdgbarrowLibrary @EdgbarrowLib]

#WomensHistoryMonth display is up! Lots of strong female lead books out ready to inspire... @EdgbarrowSchool

[EdgbarrowLibrary @EdgbarrowLib]

So many women who deserve recognition! Authors who showed me that women and girls can kick ass and save the world would be the top of my list. #SarahJMaas #MarissaMeyer #SuzanneCollins #AngieThomas #JunoDawson and not an author but the woman who inspired everything for me #Buffy

[The Female Lead @the_female_lead]

Happy #IWD2020! Today we stand on the shoulders of women who have changed the world for us. Keep this going by nominating a woman who inspires you.

Totally forgot to take a photo of our 10p book sale 🤦🏽‍♀️ It was ridiculously busy, lots of excited kids grabbing some bargain books and guessing the book in the jar! The few books we have left (on the trolley) will be available again tomorrow 🤩

[EdgbarrowLibrary @EdgbarrowLib]

I’ve had to download this book to my kindle because there are so many students waiting to read this and I don’t want to wait! #SarahJMaas #CrescentCity #ReleasedToday
