Join our enriching National Teen Book Club
INSPIRING
Help your students uncover a love for reading and learn more about careers
in publishing and related industries.
What is it?How does it work?
Brought to you by Speakers for Schools
and Penguin Random House, National
Teen Book Club is an online programme
for state schools and colleges. Created to help 11-19-year-olds enjoy reading within
a welcoming peer community, it introduces six books for teens over the course of a year.
All you have to pay for is the
heavily discounted book!
• We run the National Teen Book
Club programme in 4-week cycles with a weekly online session every Wednesday between 3.30pm and
4.30pm for each scheduled pick.
• We carefully select a book and
guest speakers, and an experienced
member of our team runs each
hour-long session*.
• Sessions are delivered online,
and each week participating
students join the interactive virtual
sessions as a group from school/
college with an educator hosting.
There is no limit to the number
of young people you may register.
Discover some of the books we’ve read so far:
*An educator from your school/college will be required to be present at each session.
