Our Library

 

The library is proud to be an integral part of each student's journey at BSCA. We are here to support pupils in both the primary and secondary phases and to foster a love of reading in all. The library is managed by our school librarian, Mrs. Perkin, who works across both the primary and secondary phases.  

 

 

Our displays showcase the latest in award-winning fiction, alongside familiar classics of children's literature. Students are able to borrow books from the library regularly as part of our commitment to developing reading for pleasure. Our school librarian regularly visits classrooms to read stories to all students across the primary phase.  

As part of our enrichment opportunities, we provide access to published authors whenever possible and welcome authors into school to work with our students. Events in our library are showcased and promoted on our school social media sites. 

We have a broad selection of books for use with the 'Accelerated Reader' scheme which are used to assist in the development of reading. 

Our school librarian creates ‘topic boxes’ to support the primary curriculum by providing relevant and engaging resources linked to current areas of study.
