Librarian of the Year Finalist

Congratulations to our very own Mrs Cleveland, who has made it onto to the Honour List for the School Library Association (SLA) School Librarian of the Year Award 2018. The SLA School Librarian of the Year Award is the School Library Association’s honour to recognize the “excellent work” that is carried out in school libraries every day and highlight the best practice of those whose work is outstanding.

The SLA said of the librarians: “These are four exceptional school librarians; each has made a huge difference to the lives of the students and people they work with, igniting a passion for reading, setting students on a learning journey, teaching them essential skills, as well as supporting staff and reaching out to the wider community. Any one of these four would be a worthy winner of the SLA School Librarian of the Year Award.”

The work of the librarians will be celebrated at a ceremony held on 9th October 2018 in Covent Garden, when Blue Peter Book Award Winner Lauren St John will announce the SLA School Librarian of the Year 2018.
