Reading for pleasure CPD

Research has consistently suggested that reading for enjoyment is beneficial to wider learning, vocabulary development and wellbeing. How can we harness this research, help children develop a life long love of reading and ensure they are accessing books which are right for them?

At our Reading for pleasure CPD, conducted over the course of a day, attendees will engage with research to explore the transformative potential of reading for pleasure. They will engage with other schools and design an action plan tailored to their setting using strategies such as exploring whole texts and "book talk".

Attendees will:

• Examine a range of approaches, including choosing and using whole texts
• Engage with research around the benefits of reading for enjoyment
• Develop an action plan to create a community of readers in your school
• Plan for embedding these successful approaches more widely across your school
