CLiPPA shortlist 2021

The CLiPPA (Centre for Literacy in Primary Poetry Award) is the only award for published poetry for children in the UK. Established in 2003, the annual Poetry Award encourages and celebrates outstanding poetry published for children.

The winner of CLiPPA 2021 is Michael Rosen for On the Move: Poems About Migration. 

Alongside the CLiPPA to promote the teaching of poetry in schools, CLPE run a Schools Shadowing Scheme. The Shadowing Scheme is an important part of the award process. The CLiPPA is an award for children’s poetry and the shadowing scheme is a fantastic way for children to be an integral part of the celebrations.

Register your interest in the shadowing scheme.
