Recommended Reading
Reading for pleasure is one of the best ways to raise your attainment in all subjects, develop your knowledge of the world and your empathy, and improve your wellbeing. We encourage you to read at home for at least twenty minutes every day.
Our well-stocked Library is at the heart of our school – it is open before school, throughout break and lunchtime and after school every day. We (Dr Roynon and Ms Duckmanton) are always keen to support you in your book choices, so please reach out to us if you would like any suggestions or help.
You can access our Library catalogue to browse for books wherever you get online. Once logged on to your own account (via your Swan google SSO), you can also write online book reviews and reserve and renew specific titles.
There are a range of reading lists at different levels and on different topics in the ‘Quick Lists’ drop down menu. We have copies of all books on these lists in the Library.
Sixth formers: you can also access academic articles (through JSTOR) for your EPQ and coursework, and the Hodder Review magazines to support all your A level subjects,via the ‘One Search’ tab on the Library homepage.
