There are two libraries in the Boys' Division: the Lower School
Library (LSL) which is open to boys in Years 7-9, and the Senior
Library which contains materials to help boys in Years 10 and
11 and the Sixth Form students prepare for GCSE and A Level
respectively. Wide reading contributes in no small way to the
students' intellectual development; encouragement is given at every
level for them to develop their interests in curricular and
extra-curricular subjects alike. Both of the libraries offer the
students excellent facilities for reading and research; they are
very well stocked and we welcome students' own recommendations.
Computers giving access to the internet and online resources
are provided in both libraries and are supplemented
by iPads.
Mrs Linda Frew is Senior Librarian in charge of libraries in
both Boys' and Girls' Divisions, thereby ensuring access to
resources across the Foundation for all pupils. She leads a team of
three library staff who are available throughout the day to issue
materials and give advice on research.
