BooksForTopics Commended for Educational Resource Excellence in 2026 Education Business Awards
We are pleased to announce that following the London ceremony of the Education Business Awards 2026, BooksForTopics has been officially Commended in the Educational Resource Award (Primary) category!
As we celebrate a decade of supporting schools since our founding in 2016, this independent validation is a significant milestone for our team and our community of teachers and librarians.
Recognising Impact in the Classroom
The Education Business Awards have been a hallmark of excellence in the UK since 2009. The Educational Resource Award specifically highlights services like BooksForTopics that demonstrate a tangible, evidence-based impact on teaching and pupil engagement.
Being Commended by the judging panel reflects a decade of BooksForTopics’ dedication to helping schools enrich their curriculum through our Year Group Booklists, Curriculum Topic Lists or the National Year of Reading Booklist.
Our mission has always been to save teachers time while putting high-quality literature at the heart of every classroom. This recognition serves as an independent audit of our ongoing work and an industry seal of approval as the go-to website for finding curriculum-aligned booklists and pedagogical reading advice.
A Message to Our Community
This education industry Commendation is a reflection of the incredible work being done in classrooms every day.
Being recognised by the Education Business Awards panel is a testament to the efficacy of our resources and the rigour of our pedagogical approach to book selection. Even better – we are thrilled to reach this milestone during the National Year of Reading!
For BooksForTopics, this achievement is shared with the thousands of teachers and librarians who have integrated our resources into their daily practice.
The professional trust that teachers place in BooksForTopics is the foundation of our work, and we are incredibly grateful for the support we receive from the education community every day.
