Alison Newbolt, a business director at GSK, said: “Many of my team have children of their own so really recognise the importance of educational support.”

Sarah Latham, acting deputy head and literary head at the school, said: “Receiving these book donations from GSK is a great help – the children will have lots of fun exploring their new literature.”
