Create critically literate readers

Did you know: 86% of children want to know what is happening in the world but are uncertain of where to find this information.

With its suite of online and printable resources, First News Education supports teachers to bring news literacy into classrooms, enabling students to understand, question and discuss the news they encounter.

Ignite a love of reading with non-fiction

Inspire young readers with the First News weekly newspaper, a unique source of non-fiction, packed with engaging news for all interests and abilities, from bite-sized articles to in-depth special reports.

A study in partnership with the National Literacy Trust* showed that by regularly reading and discussing news, pupils develop confidence in their reading and are motivated to read more widely in their own time too.

Nurture your pupils’ global awareness

Empower your pupils with an enhanced understanding of the world and their place in it.

Regular news-reading not only elevates pupils’ global awareness but motivates them to learn more, share their opinions and build confidence with their richer, deeper understanding of worldwide news.
