Home > Bookmark Launches School Network Programme in Barking & Dagenham

We’re delighted to share that Bookmark is launching its School Network Programme in Barking & Dagenham, bringing new, fully funded support to eligible schools across the borough.

As part of this programme, schools that previously received a Your Story Corner pack (and remain eligible) can now access free follow-on support worth £1,000.

What does the programme offer?

This fully funded programme will support schools throughout the 2025/26 academic year, providing both high-quality reading resources and professional development opportunities. Participating schools will receive:

  • 📘 A subscription to The Story Corner magazine, delivered termly

  • 📚 Two Bookmark Rocket Packs — curated, themed book collections worth £150 (delivered in the Spring and Summer terms)

  • 🤝 Access to networking events and ongoing CPD, offering opportunities to connect, share practice, and build expertise

What is the commitment?

There is no cost to schools. The only commitment is to provide light-touch feedback to help Bookmark understand the programme’s impact, including:

  • Two brief termly feedback responses via email
  • One short video call

  • Completion of an end-of-year impact survey
