Registration is now closed for World Book Day 2024. To check your school’s token registration status, please email wbd@education.co.uk.
All Primary schools automatically receive tokens. For all Primary, Full Age, Secondary and Early Years who have previously registered for World Book Day, we will use your existing details for the 2024 distribution.
If you are a Secondary or Early Years (who hasn't previously registered for World Book Day) and have missed the registration deadline for the £1/ €1.50 tokens and poster packs then you will still be able to access a digital version of the token and digital versions of the posters on the website in January. All resources for World Book Day 2024 will be available on the resources page of our website for FREE from the 8th December so you can plan your celebrations.
How to get tokens if you are a childminder, home educator or other registered non-group-based setting.
Registered Childminders, Home Educators, and other registered individuals should send in a stamp-addressed envelope to receive tokens before 31 January. The outer and inner return envelopes must have valid stamps for the correct value. The outer envelope should be addressed to:
EdCo - World Book Day SAE
Denne Court
Hengist Field
Oad Street
Borden
Sittingbourne
ME9 8LT
Please write the number of tokens you require in the top right-hand corner of your return envelope. If you do not enter a value we will only send you 1 token.
You must fix the correct value, 1st or 2nd class stamp to both the outer and your return envelope.
Envelopes which do not have the correct payment on the outer envelope will not be delivered to us by Royal Mail. If there is no stamp on your return envelope, unfortunately we cannot process your request. Postage on your return envelope must be enough to cover the weight of the number of tokens sent, otherwise you may incur a surcharge from Royal Mail. Each token weighs 2 grams.
Any request received up to the 31st January will be stored and despatched after that date. For requests received after the 31st January, please allow up to 14 days for this process.
If you would rather receive a digital token then these will be available free of charge from the website in January.
