Reading Schools is an accreditation programme for schools that are committing to building a reading culture for their learners and communities. Research proves that reading for pleasure is central in supporting equity and wellbeing, positively impacting learners’ attainment across the curriculum, critical thinking, creativity, empathy and resilience.
We have a Readership Team, made up of staff and pupils, who are committed to delivering our action plan in order to gain this accreditation for Coylton.
Our main aim is to create a culture of reading for pleasure in our school. This also supports the work we are doing as part of Phase One of South Ayrshire Reads.
