AWESOME LEARNPATH GUIDES We have created a number of different LearnPath Guides on Oliver: Research skills, Year 7 to Sixth Form subject guides, books and reading resources, how to guides, competitions/games. Each of these LearnPath guides offers helpful, at-a-glance access to a wide range of interactive resources and content supporting that particular subject or area of interest. Easily accessible – Reading Lists To help students find books with specific genres and themes, we have compiled a series of book lists in the Reading Lists section. Here, books are grouped under
themes and you will find recommended reading lists. From best football books of all time to LGBTQ+ reads, bibliotherapy books to hot summer reads there is something for everyone.
