'If you want to succeed, read': The Late Show with Sarah Wilkinson-Crute | Teachers Talk Radio Fewer children are reading for pleasure than ever before. Screens are louder. Notifications are faster. Attention is shorter. So in a world of endless scrolling, does sitting down with a book still matter?In this World Book Day special, we ask the difficult questions: Does reading for pleasure really shape success? And do events like World Book Day create lasting change - or just a moment of enthusiasm?One bold claim. An honest debate.If you want to succeed, read.

Such an important point. I think it's a long-held misconception about teachers 'clocking off' when the bell rings. The reality is very different. Another point is we can't accept it's part of the day job, we need to treasure teachers & look after them! I will listen to the episode fully, thank you!
