Author Emma / Posts / Published: 7/2/2021



Book Week 2021 will be here before you know it and if you’re anything like me you’ll leave it to the last minute and end up wearing last year's costume or pulling something ordinary together the morning of! So I’m here to help you all out with a list of the best teacher costume ideas for Book Week this year.

If you are searching for easy costumes for teachers, here are 5 of the most iconic teacher costume ideas for book week!


1. Oompa Loompas


Oompa Loompas: Great Book Week ideas for teachers come in all shapes and sizes and while Oompa Loompas come in only one shape and size, they still make a great option for a Book Week teacher costume. Try dressing up your whole faculty in Oompa Loompa costumes and the head teacher as Willy Wonka for an awesome teachers Book Week group costume idea.


2. Mary Poppins


Mary Poppins: Like Mary Poppins, what teacher isn’t great with kids? Choose this supercalifragilisticexpialidocious costume for Book Week and become the beloved magical Nanny with her iconic flying umbrella and bag that’s bigger on the inside in any of our Mary Poppins costumes.


3. Harry Potter


Harry Potter: There are plenty of great characters from Harry Potter to inspire Book Week ideas for teachers, from Harry Potter himself to the Ravenclaw students, Lord Voldemort and Dumbledore. All you need for Harry Potter or the Ravenclaw students is a long baclk cloak and hood over black trousers and a t-shirt (not forgetting a magical wand). For Lord Voldemort, you want the same black outfit as for the Ravenclaw students, but you also need a Voldemort face mask to pull it off. Professor Dumbledore needs a long regal cloak closed at the front or a kaftan, long pointy hat or tassel hat, wand and a long flowing beard, moustache and white wig.

4. Wizard of Oz


Wizard of Oz: As teachers, we really want to encourage our kids to have fun and feel comfortable reading books. Grab your teacher friends and go as the Wizard of Oz as a great group costume idea. Some perfect Book Week character ideas include Dorothy costumes galore with a basket for little Toto, Scarecrow costumes for anyone filled with straw, Tin Man costumes for empty metal and even Cowardly Lion costumes for those who lack a little courage. Other Wizard of Oz Book Week ideas could see you as the sparkling Glinda the Good Witch or maybe you’ve always wanted to be the baddie for your Book Week parade; so why not be the Wicked Witch of the West, or the Wicked Witch of the East?


5. Roald Dahl


Roald Dahl: Celebrate classic children’s literature with a Roald Dahl costume this Book Week. Many teachers would prefer to keep the spirit of reading alive by choosing classic book characters and not characters or books that have become popular after being turned into films.Think the BFG, a Miss Trunchbull costume, the Witches and more.
