Hi folks, anyone have any really great research/blogs/books they’ve recently read on student generated questions, please?

Lovely Twitter folk, I’m trying to help our Senior School librarian create one of the amazing rainbow book cover displays I’ve seen on here.Does anyone have a document with teen book covers sorted by colour please? Many I’ve found are for younger pupils. TIA @engteacherabro2

Do you want to improve reading at your school? Together with @school_tracker, I've created a FREE reading audit! It takes 15 mins & identifies areas for improvement, generating a bespoke Reading Report with effective strategies. Pls retweet! bit.ly/Reading_Audit @GalcottGareth

Last night saw the culmination of many months of hard work, with the wonderful performance of Moana Jr. by our Year 5 and 6 pupils. The cast were incredible, filling the Theatre with superb singing and dancing. Well done to everyone involved! #BrightonCollegeBangkok

Absolutely loved talking to parents this morning about the importance of reading - in partnership with my wonderful colleague who leads KS2 English. So lucky to work in a 2-18 school where such collaboration over transition is possible 📚💕 @BrightonBangkok
