Sullivan's School Library

October is International School Library Month - so let's take a look inside.

The Sullivan school library is a vibrant hub providing a warm and welcoming environment conducive for study, research or reading.

Librarian Miss Ruth Hopkins overseas the well stocked shelves with books to support the curriculum as well as a varied and up-to-date selection of fiction for all ages.

She, her team and teachers from the English Department work hard in supporting pupils and encouraging reading for pleasure.

The Library has a soft-seating area, plus around 40 spaces at desks. It adjoins the SEON Room (Sullivan Educational Online Network) in which there are 32 networked PCs and here pupils can research, type and print their work. There are currently 13 I-pads available to students during Library periods, on which they complete Accelerated Reader quizzes.

Each class in Years 8 – 10 (1st - 3rd form) has a library period each week. Year 8 and 9 classes are also allocated a Library mentor who is a member of the Sixth Form. Sixth form pupils can sign out of the Study to use the Library and SEON Room for research and private study. 

All pupils are encouraged to share their love of reading and make recommendations and write reviews.

The Library is open daily to pupils and staff from 8:30am until 4:30pm.
