Posted by: , Posted on: - Categories: North East, Yorkshire and the Humber

The Primary Reading Scheme, piloted at Benton Park Primary School, has enabled foundation stage learners to read aloud to Civil Service volunteers over weekly sessions and for Nursery stage learners to hear stories read to them. Following the success of the pilot, we have extended the scheme to a further 4 schools involved in the Ouseburn Learning Trust.

Volunteering can make a real difference to the lives around you, whilst adding something great to your life and of course your CV! We want to ensure that civil servant volunteers who are thinking about giving some of their time to a school can find an opportunity which is right for them.
