  11. We’re going to use role modelsBecause NLT research shows: 11.

Premier League Reading Stars How it works: • Each delivery setting... • …collects and logs reading data on their participating pupils… • ...delivers 10 football-themed literacy sessions including, where possible, a visit to a library and a visit from an author or similar… • …encourages and supports pupils to take part in the online challenges… • …submits end of project data for the evaluation • To support this activity each Premier League Club... • ...nominates one Reading Champion... • ...who chooses one children’s and one adults’ book... • ...and gives us a quote about why he loves reading and why he chose those titles… • …and sets 5 challenges for pupils, hosted online
