Qualified Teacher-Librarians make a difference! That’s why @TeachersFed is campaigning for those specialist positions to be filled with dual qualified permanent teacher-librarians in every public school!
New research shows that students in schools with a qualified teacher librarian had up to two month’s learning gain, compared to students in schools with no staff member managing the library #studentsneedschoollibraries
