Conferences

Reading Champions' Conferences 2021-22

After consultation with our schools here in Leicester, our approach for this academic year is to blend face to face conferences with virtual online session. At the moment the WiT team are busily planning for these and news of the upcoming dates will be available early in the autumn term.

We will be keeping you up to date with current practice and ideas around promoting reading for pleasure in your school, as well as working with Leicester Libraries and CLS to provide you with great projects and book recommendations.

Watch out for updates!
