We are delighted to announce that John Taylor High School is taking part in the BookTrust’s annual BookBuzz scheme, which aims to get young people reading by offering them a free book. Every Year 7 pupil will be able to choose one of the sixteen BookBuzz titles showcasing both new and established writers across a range of genres, each carefully selected by the BookTrust charity.
To help pupils with their selection, the BookTrust have made a short video providing details of all sixteen BookBuzz titles, along with each author championing their own book. Click the following link to access the promotional video online – Bookbuzz 2025: meet the authors and the books
Year 7 pupils must make their choice and submit their order by Wednesday 15th October 2025. We expect our BookBuzz books to be delivered in early December, ready for distribution in time for the Christmas break.
We hope that Bookbuzz will encourage our Year 7 pupils to read more frequently, helping to improve their wellbeing, spark interesting conversations and inspire creativity.
