View PostEarlier this month, to celebrate Dyslexia awareness week, we trained more students than ever as Barrington Ambassadors. Every Friday, our trained student Ambassadors work one-to-one with younger students, helping them build confidence and joy in reading. We work directly with Barrington Stoke publishers who help us promote this scheme by sending leaflets, bookmarks and prizes. We are proud to be the only school in the UK with specific Barrington Stoke Ambassadors. Together, we're creating a nurturing reading culture where every student can thrive. #GosforthGroup #DyslexiaAwarenessWeek #BarringtonAmbassadors #GreatParkAcademy #InclusiveEducation #ReadingSupport #BarringtonStoke #CreatingFutures
