How far does your school ‘literature spine’ go? The push for ‘reading for pleasure’ can sometimes result in a diet of entertaining but low-quality literature. C.S.Lewis suggested we ‘read an old one in between’ every 'new' book, and this approach can have a huge impact on school outcomes: children investigate and better understand the nuances of vocabulary, grammar and language; and the content provides them with a framework for exploring social and political attitudes, and developing foundation subject knowledge. This webinar will:

• Explore the meaning of ‘cultural capital'
• Provide examples of classic literature that can be used for creative teaching and learning
• Suggest how older literature can impact across the curriculum

Audience:

• Class teachers (KS2)
• English coordinators and curriculum leads
• Senior leaders
