How do you feel your school will benefit from holding a mini BWA competition?

"Once the BWA competition is set up, we will establish a weekly after school club in which pupils and a teacher meet and pupils write their entries and share them in a supportive forum."

What are BWA Local Literacy Leaders?

At the BWA, we aim to boost literacy skills throughout the UK – and to inspire and support unpublished writers of all ages and from all communities.

If you'd like to help us achieve our goal, you may be interested in becoming a BWA local literacy leader. You'll be the person or organisation who's inspiring and facilitating action among your whole community to raise literacy levels and boost overall achievement!
