The Ward Library

Fiction

​

The library stocks a wide range of fiction books for students in Years 7-13. Books are categorised under the author’s surname, as well as by genre and age range so everyone can easily find something suitable to read. We also supply a (limited) selection of books on CD and books for students with additional learning needs (EG large print and dyslexia friendly) to make texts more accessible.

​

Non-Fiction

 

We also stock reference books and non-fiction books for all the subjects in our curriculum, from KS3 to KS5. Many books in our library have been selected by our teaching staff so they are up to date and relevant to the subjects taught in school.

Can’t find what you’re looking for or want to recommend something? We are always open to suggestions, just email Ms Sinclair with your request!
