At Unity Academy Blackpool, we believe in reading for pleasure and purpose. Reading nurtures our imagination, fosters empathy and broadens our understanding of the world. Reading also plays a vital role in supporting our health and wellbeing, enhancing our capacity to acquire new skills, and improving our ability to express ideas clearly. Our In Unity We Read programme, sits alongside the extensive focus on reading within the curriculum, and ensures that students are offered a diverse range of opportunities to read for pleasure and purpose.
