“The session was very well organised. There was a good balance between teacher delivery and activities, making it quite engaging. We were offered several good ideas that we could take away and use in the classroom straight away and had an opportunity to hear about the requirements from AQA. I was able to discuss ideas with other teachers as I’d hoped – and both the venue and the provided lunch were excellent.”

“The course at UEA gave me a massive boost; I have a much better understanding. I can see the distinct differences between English and Creative Writing - and how they complement each other. I am more confident in being myself and sharing my specialist subject, not so guarded or afraid. Best of all, I am tremendously excited in my teaching - and to see all those opportunities ahead and a much clearer path to point at when a timid youngster says: 'I'd like to be a writer.' ”

Alison Stewart, Northampton College

“One of the best aspects for me was the structure of the day. There was a great mix of information, activity ideas and key points to flag up. I thought the venue was really appropriate and getting some resources in the pack was an added bonus. I came away feeling informed and inspired - and motivated enough to tell my head straight away how great it was. ”
