Academic publisher Taylor & Francis Group, a division of Informa UK Ltd, has announced a new partnership between Routledge and the National Literacy Trust as part of its Corporate Responsibility programme.
As one of the UK's leading independent literacy charities, The National Literacy Trust transforms lives through literacy by supporting those who struggle with literacy and the people who work with them. Under the new initiative, Routledge will sponsor three of the Trust's key publications in Autumn 2011, including their free full-colour A4 resource School's Guide to Literacy, which is being mailed to 25,000 schools across the UK at the end of September.
Packed with the latest research on literacy, as well as practical ideas for how teachers can assess and improve literacy in their school, these publications complement many of the key professional titles on the Fulton/Routledge literacy list, which will also be promoted to these 25,000 schools alongside the guide.
In 2012 and beyond, the global publisher hopes to build upon its relationship with the National Literacy Trust, work more closely on specific publications as a result of its corporate sponsorship and explore ways in which both parties can support one another with the common aim of raising literacy standards in school and at home.
