A big thank you to all the kind messages from staff and students as I say goodbye to move to a different library. It's been an absolute pleasure developing the library with the students at the centre. #GreatSchLibs #DerbyHighSchool

Mrs H is looking forward to finding out what other school libraries are doing to support their school communities, future trends and free books, what's not to like? #GreatSchoolLibraries

Mrs H had a day out being inspired by some amazing school librarians today. Lots of ideas to bring back to school. A big thank you to @RusheyMeadAcad for hosting and sharing your inspiring reading culture.

We are running a staff "Read Along" encouraging members of staff to try one of the shortlisted books and share thoughts. There is one book left, staff can pop in tomorrow - don't miss out! #WomensPrize #DerbyHighSchool

Happy #WorldBookDay2024 from DHS library. It was business as usual today, after a fantastic assembly of students sharing books we had a super busy lunchtime, selling £1 books, chatting about books, writing reviews and swapping books #GreatSchoolLibraries
Still time for students to enter...
Look @DHS_LibraryNews and @EnglishDHS1 - maths and Shakespeare don't have to inhabit separate regions of the Venn diagram after all!!

A big thank you to @BloomsburyEd for this prize. We have lots of readers who enjoy a good spy story #RfP
We have been working hard to improve diversity within our stock. It's been made a lot easier now that publishers are doing their bit. Still a long way to go #Equality #GreatSchLibs

Last week, we welcomed @sufiyaahmed to #DerbyHighSchool. Students got an insight into Sufiya's sources of inspiration for her historical fiction books, her role models, & her advocacy for better representation of young Asian girls in children's literature. Thank you @sufiyaahmed
