@j1jem @MisterABK Just seen this Jem! Was it as good as End Of The Food Chain in 1997?!

Thank you @torchesbright for a wonderful workshop exploring how to teach Shakespeare in fun, active and engaging ways. The English PGCE students had an amazing time and now have a bursting toolbox of drama strategies to take into the classroom! We hope to work with you again soon

@RAC_Care terrible, terrible, TERRIBLE service. We’ve been waiting since 7:45pm yesterday for someone to attend our vehicle, coughing up for taxis home. Bad communication throughout. STILL no sign and another wretched holding message. #poorservice #breakdowncover #schoolrun

Real pleasure today to meet Tom and Fiona from @TorchesBright and to see the fabulous work they've facilitated at @CDPS_Southwark. Warm welcome from everyone, especially the enthusiastic confident children and Midas, the play the children staged, is terrific.

Great first session on active approaches to teaching Shakespeare with @EngMediaCentre and @TorchesBright (Tom). I was hesitant about shouting out Macbeth quotes but it really made me think. Not sure how the shouting will go down when I do session 2 from my classroom tomorrow!

[Laura Besenzi @MrsBesenzi]

'... the most important activity for English teachers appears to be facilitating interaction + discussion between classmates; more time spent on this tends to raise English GCSE scores.'
In case you missed this over summer.
