For the start of the new term, we have gathered together a collection of books for a range of ages, from those starting reception to those moving to senior school and beyond.

We've included a selection of great new non-fiction titles on some popular curriculum subjects, picture books to reassure young children starting school and stories within a school setting.

For children who feel worried about starting school or nervous about the return to school, our Anxiety & Wellbeing and Resilience collections offer a further selection of books and resources. For some children, school anxiety can lead to more serious challenges, such as difficulties with attendance. Recent research shows that up to 5% of the school population experiences Emotionally Based School Avoidance (EBSA). In her powerful new novel Jellybean, author Eve Ainsworth explores this issue with sensitivity and insight, drawing on her extensive knowledge to offer understanding and support for young people and their families navigating EBSA.

We've thrown in some great school based fiction too, to remind children of all the fun they can have at school. And a selection of new information and factual books on popular curriculum subjects.
