The Write Team: Engaging Invisible Pupils Through Creative Writing

Anthony Wilson, , ,

Emma Metcalfe from The Bath Festivals’ Write Team has created this poster presentation for the forthcoming ESRC-funded Poetry Matters Seminar Series. What is so exciting about this project is to witness the improved confidence of children as they write and perform their work alongside experienced professionals and similar gains in the understanding of creativity and writing of teachers. Creative Writing teaching resources from the project can be found elsewhere on this site and on the Write Team site.

Thank you to Emma Metcalfe for permission to post this.

The first Poetry Matters seminar will be held at Exeter University 11-12 January.
