As we are studying Dracula at the moment, Brodie T in yr9 was inspired to read ‘Frankenstein’ and shared her review in class this morning! It’s fantastic to see our wonderful students taking their learning outside of the classroom! If you’ve read more gothic lit, let us know!

Sylvia Plath once said that "the worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt". So next time you say "I don't know what to write" think instead "what do I know to write about?". Writing with confidence is vital. @GlenWinEnglish @GlenmoorAcademy @WintonAcademyUL #famouswords #inspire
