More than 750,000 kids don’t have a library in their primary school.
In the largest-ever survey of its kind, one in seven state primary schools (14%) said they had no designated library space.
The study of 3,752 schools found a huge North-South divide, with no library at three times the number of primaries in the north-east (18%) and north-west (16%) as in south-east England (6%).
