The large and vibrant Library, also called Powell's Learning Centre or PLC, forms a valued central resource within the school, providing study and research facilities and many additional services for all pupils and staff.
With over 10,000 carefully selected resources on a wide variety of subjects, we are sure there is something for everyone. We use Access-it Library Computer lending system which makes selecting and finding books very easy.
Pupils can use the library for quiet reading, studying and doing homework, researching, computer work, watching videos and DVDs or looking at magazines and newspapers.
We have a small number of KS3 Pupil Librarians who help the librarians at break and lunchtime. Pupils can apply to be a pupil librarian in September/ October. There is a KS3 Reading Club which takes place during Wednesday lunchtime and keen readers are welcome to join.
