Become a partner school

We partner with eligible schools in disadvantaged areas to deliver reading support and literacy resources to children who need us the most.

Since beginning in 2018, we have partnered with over 300 schools in England and Wales to deliver literacy support. Our mission is to instill a whole school reading culture in every partner school and ensure every child can discover the power of books. If your school is interested in partnering with us, please fill out the form below.
