@ARLTClassics is such enjoyable CPD it doesn’t feel like work! It’s always lovely to catch up with friends and meet new people. And we were treated to a rain free day trip to Vindolanda.
Sad to leave the @ARLTClassics Summer School early. It was packed with excellent lectures & option groups on a range of topics including Sappho, Ovid, history pedagogy, Eduqas Love & Marriage, spoken Latin... Plus I led a group on teaching and learning in the classics classroom.
Classics teachers, if you haven’t done so already, please complete the CA’s questionnaire about the format of their future CPD programme. @ARLTClassics 👇
The CA is currently finalising its CPD programme for the next academic year and would welcome teachers' feedback in order to make these events as useful as possible. Please answer our short questionnaire below. Many thanks!

We are so proud that our wonderful Outreach Officer and Chair of the Classics Development Group @DrArleneHH has been awarded an #MBE in the King's #BirthdayHonours - a richly deserved recognition of all she does to champion our subject and widen access to the ancient world 🙌
I took 80 Year 7 to Fishbourne @romanpalace today and loved it! Such a good trip and the girls were very excited to “touch things a real life Roman has touched”. Just a shame we couldn’t spend any longer there. Thank you to all who recommended it.
A level Latin online text session - Virgil Aeneid Bk XII, Tuesday 9th May 1:30-2:30 pm by @BGibson434 for @MTGS_Classics@MTBSClassics but open to other schools https://t.co/sO3rxCMddb
What a treat to have the @Classical_Assoc’s 120th anniversary celebration in the beautiful Fitzwilliam Museum. Thank you @officialnhaynes for a rousing speech on the joys of Classics. Now to sleep before tomorrow’s mammoth conference schedule. #CA2023
I’ll be travelling to the CA conference from London after school finishes tomorrow and am looking forward to all the wonderful pedagogy panels and papers on Saturday’s packed programme. We are spoiled for choice! #CA2023
This promises to be a very interesting project on ancient & modern refugee stories, particularly in light of current debates. Looking forward to going tomorrow with @sheonadavies to support @jcorkewebster. Anyone else in London with a free Monday evening should have a look.
Would appreciate help circulating this as widely as possible - in the current furore over the new immigration bill, the voices of the displaced and persecuted it will impact are conspicuously absent. This exhibition, Letters of Refuge, puts them front and centre. #LettersOfRefuge
Key points: it’s hard to observe learning, concepts need to be met at least three times, link to big picture, build on prior learning, check for understanding and encourage students to manage their own learning. Thank you @iknowkellaway and @ajpross for your great contributions.
Today the @WoldinghamSch EdResearch team discussed Graham Nuthall’s Hidden Lives of Learners. It’s clear to see why it is such a seminal text as it reinforces so much of the other pedagogical research we have looked at this year.
