‘Read to Succeed’ Authors Tour 2019

Last year under the Scottish Attainment Challenge, we in North Lanarkshire launched a ‘Read to Succeed’ initiative aimed at primary to high school transition. The main aim was to make reading for pleasure a priority. Due to last years success,  funding was again allocated to ensure that each high school had an author visit for S1. The authors that visited St. Andrew’s High School were Alex Scarrow and Martin Stewart. Ten pupils also attended the closing ceremony in St. Ambrose High school with authors Keith Charters and Dan Freedman. The pupils  received a signed copy of a book by Dan Freedman.
