    Of course, it’s pretty hard to predict what a mature adult will do based on their behaviour at 15. At least I hope so, thinking back to when I was 15 :-)

    A key thing for me is “what are they reading?” As long as young people have access to a wide range of fiction and non-fiction texts I don’t think the delivery system matters too much.
