An exploration of the future of Corby Learning Partnership strand of activity for literacy: Corby Reads

The aim of the project was to develop a series of options for consideration by the Corby Learning Partnership for the future development and sustainability of this initiative for Corby, to embrace all stakeholders involved in supporting the development of literacy amongst the community of Corby.

The work was undertaken by holding a series of interviews - both face-to face and by telephone - with a range of stakeholders who are to a greater or lesser extent currently involved in the work of Corby Reads! Interviews were also undertaken with national experts in this policy area, and with other partnerships around the country who are utilising a range of models to support and provide similar initiatives.

It is expected that this work will benefit the population of Corby, particularly young people and parents, carers and the wider workforce involved in supporting literacy development.

This work provides the Corby Learning Partnership with a series of options for consideration for their future activity and sustainability. It will impact on young people, parents, carers and the wider workforce who are supporting literacy development in Corby.
