Bookfest was invited to join The Teacher Squad Podcast in March 2024 to showcase the Readers to Writers project and the research study by the University of Worcester.

The Teacher Squad Podcast with Heather Wright and Jane Considine, is a weekly dive into the world of education; from innovative classroom practices and cutting-edge pedagogy to the latest news and trends and a go-to resource for all things related to teaching young minds. Jane and Heather provide valuable insights, practical tips, and thought-provoking discussions that empower and inspire teachers in the classroom. 

Together with Suzanne Horton from the University of Worcester, Bookfest discusses the outcomes of the research study by the university into the impact of the Readers to Writers project and how it has left an ongoing positive legacy for all participants.
