How do I borrow books?

All students are members of the library and have their own accounts. Students can come to the library at break time, lunch time and after school. Year 7 and 8 students also have a library lesson once a fortnight. Students can take out two books at a time for a period of three weeks.

Author visits

The Academy is very proud of the very successful author visits from writers such as Taran Matharu, Phil Earle, Chris Bradford and Alex Wheatle. Students get to hear them speak, listen to them read and take part in workshops with them. 

Drop Everything and Read

Throughout the week every Year 7 and Year 8 class have a lesson in the school week, where the whole class read the same book together.  Led by the teacher, reading aloud to students has been shown to have powerful impacts upon student literacy, as well as expose students to a wider range of books such as the likes of Patrick Ness, Sally Gardner, Neil Gaiman, and Benjamin Zephaniah.
