The CLiPPA Collection

This collection features poems by previous winners of the CLiPPA. The Centre for Literacy in Primary Education’s (CLPE) Primary Poetry Award, the CLiPPA, encourages and celebrates outstanding children’s poetry. Established in 2003, the CLiPPA is the UK’s only award for published poetry for children and the award is the flagship event in the CLPE’s year round championing of poetry. As well as recognising outstanding poetry, the CLiPPA shadowing scheme sees hundreds of schools explore the CLiPPA shortlist with their pupils, inviting them to submit films of children performing their favourite poems, helping to build a life-long love of poetry.
