Your teachers currently spend hours each term searching for assembly content. Stories for Schools returns that time to them.
The library is curriculum-aligned and covers PSHE, SMSC, and British values — the areas inspectors look for, already sorted. You get a resource your staff will actually use, and your children will remember.
An individual subscription is £39 for the year. A whole-school subscription is £400 — and most schools cover that from the first term’s time saving alone.
