Learning Outside the Classroom

Find out how libraries support reading for pleasure and discover our offer for schools.

Libraries play an important role in children's education from early years to their final exams. They prepare children for school with story times and interactive sessions and continue to engage them with activities like Lego clubs, code clubs, and reading challenges during Key Stages 1 and 2.

 For older students in Key Stages 3 and 4, libraries offer resources and sessions that align with curriculum objectives, fostering critical thinking and aiding in exam preparation.
