This report presents the findings of a small exploratory study carried out in 2021 by the New Zealand Council for Educational Research (NZCER) for the National Library of New Zealand | Te Puna Matauranga o Aotearoa. The project is part of a wider suite of six studies commissioned by the National Library as part of their Communities of Readers initiative. This initiative foregrounds the benefits of reading for pleasure and the equitable distribution of these benefits across all communities in Aotearoa New Zealand. The purpose of this study was to investigate the possible associations between the personal reading practices of teachers who read for pleasure and their engagement with students around text in their schools and classrooms. Two main questions guided the research: (1) How do teachers who read for pleasure describe their engagement with text and the impact of reading on their lives? and (2) How do teachers who read for pleasure describe their engagement with students around text in their classrooms and schools and the impact of this engagement? The research involved interviewing nine primary and intermediate teachers known to be passionate readers. Findings show: (1) There were more similarities than differences among the teachers as readers; (2) Teachers had similar aspirations for their students as readers; (3) Teachers used a range of strategies to realise their aspirations for students; (4) Teachers supported reading for pleasure across the school; and (5) Teachers observed increased engagement and achievement in reading.
