We are delighted to share that Ark Tindal has been awarded the Reading for Pleasure Quality Mark from the United Kingdom Literacy Association.
Reading sits at the heart of life at Tindal. It shapes our curriculum, fills our classrooms with imagination, and gives every child the tools to learn, connect and dream big. Whether it’s daily story time, our well-loved book corners or the excitement of discovering new authors, reading brings joy and purpose to every day in school.
The award followed a detailed review of our practice, with evidence gathered from pupil interviews, learning walks and classroom visits. The assessors explored our curriculum, our reading environments and the wide range of opportunities we provide to help children develop a lifelong love of books.
This national recognition celebrates the enthusiasm of our pupils, the creativity of our staff and the dedication of Mrs Khan, whose leadership has helped reading to truly flourish across the school.
It’s wonderful to see this important part of our school recognised through such a prestigious award – and we are so proud of every child who has made reading their superpower.
