This World Book Day, we’re shining a spotlight on the incredible librarians across our secondary schools and their vital role in nurturing a love of reading within their schools.
At Brooke Weston Trust, we believe reading is a Ticket For Life, equipping students with the essential skills they will need, no matter where their future takes them.
To celebrate, we spoke with five of our passionate librarians - Wendy Mann (Brooke Weston Academy), Claire Keelan (Corby Business Academy), Sophie Cunningham (Corby Technical School), Elaine Galer (Kettering Science Academy) and Leanne Robinson (Thomas Clarkson Academy).
They shared their journeys, insights, and the joys of inspiring young readers every day:

As we celebrate this year’s National Apprenticeship Week, we’re highlighting the valuable opportunities available to our employees across the Trust. Alongside our comprehensive Centre for Professional Development offering, apprenticeships provide another valuable pathway for professional growth. Covering areas from teaching assistants to digital, finance and wellbeing, our apprenticeship offering equips staff with new skills, enhances career progression, and supports our commitment to high-quality, accessible CPD – a key strand in our recent People Strategy.
To showcase the impact of these opportunities, we spoke to two colleagues from across the Trust about their apprenticeship journeys. Solma Hussain, Administrator at Brooke Weston Academy, and Josh Bonnar, HR Administrator at Brooke Weston Academy, share their experiences and insights:
“Reading Week is about emphasising how important reading is, regardless of subject or future aspirations. It's designed to be an empowering moment that showcases reading as key to success in all areas of life.”
- Lauren Fitzjohn, Literacy Lead at Brooke Weston Academy
“Ambition for all – High Quality and Accessible CPD for Everyone”
"Our aim is to create a cohesive community where every child, regardless of their needs, can share in the joy of school traditions and celebrations."
Kettering Science Academy, part of Brooke Weston Trust, has made a substantial contribution to the local environment by planting 301 tree saplings with the help of enthusiastic students and community volunteers. The project highlights the school’s pledge to teach students about caring for nature.
