SUMMARY:A Level Classical Civilisation Training Day at Warwick School
DESCRIPTION:From David Stephenson … \n\n\n\nDear All\, \n\n\n\nI have arranged for OCR to deliver two training / feedback days at Warwick School: \n\n\n\n\nThursday 6th February – A Level Class. Civ.\, 10.00-16.00\n\n\n\nThursday 27th February – GCSE Class. Civ.\, 10.00-12.30\n\n\n\n\nRefreshments will be served from 9.15 then at various points including a full hot and cold buffet lunch on both days – I’m not kidding when I say our kitchens are really rather good at catering for events like this! I am also hoping that Hellenic Bookservice will be with us for at least the full day on February 6th. \n\n\n\nThe format will be exactly the same as you would get if you went to one of OCR’s centrally organised training days. Quoting their CPD website: “uses past series’ assessment materials\, including new candidate exemplars\, to help equip you with the knowledge and understanding to optimise your delivery of all externally assessed components. The event will support you to develop an in-depth understanding of the assessment expectations\, marking criteria and outcomes from past series. You’ll have opportunities to practice marking real candidate responses; receive guidance on how and why candidate responses secured a range of marks; interact with an expert trainer and explore ideas to enhance teaching and learning for future preparation and delivery.” \n\n\n\nWe ask for a contribution towards the overall cost (per school – send as many teachers as you like) of £120 for the full A Level day\, £60 for the GCSE morning or £150 for both. Please use this Microsoft Forms link to sign up for either or both events. https://forms.office.com/e/10iwN27WJc?origin=lprLink \n\n\n\nPlease do tell me if you wished to be removed from my mailing lists. \n\n\n\nYours sincerely\, \n\n\n\nDavid Stephenson \n\n\n\nPS I will take this (and any!) opportunity to plug the JACT Latin Summer School – full details and online application on www.latincamp.co.uk including bespoke courses for people new to teaching Latin. I attach our flier and I am always happy to post hard multiple hard copies direct to anyone who would like them\, though they should make it round most schools anyway. I am also always very happy to talk to anyone about “Camp” so do let me know if you have any questions.

SUMMARY:The Minotaur's Maze: Encountering Neurodivergence in Classics
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Cora Beth Fraser (The Open University)\n \nThursday 6 February 2025\, 12pm\nSt Luke’s Chapel\nFree\, but registration is required\n \nRegister via Eventbrite\n \n\nThe social model of disability describes people as being disabled by barriers in society\, rather than by our own impairment or difference. Barriers can be physical\, practical\, structural\, social or conceptual.\n\n \n\nBut barriers aren’t always negative. Some we choose to build ourselves\, for very good reasons.\n\n \n\nThis talk will explore the imagery of barriers and walls\, looking at how they are associated with neurodivergent – and particularly autistic – people\, both in teaching and learning and in popular culture. How do we differentiate between barriers and boundaries? When does ‘inclusion’ become a trap? And how does environment shape our experience of neurodivergent anxiety\, even online?\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n\nCora Beth Fraser is an Associate Lecturer and Honorary Associate in Classics at The Open University\, where she works with adult distance learners. Her teaching-related scholarship focuses on practical interventions to recognise and support neurodiversity in online learning. At The Open University she created and developed the Relaxed Tutorial Project\, which has helped to roll out autism-friendly adjustments to thousands of students. Beyond the OU\, in 2021 she founded a national organisation called Asterion\, dedicated to celebrating and supporting neurodiversity in Classics. In 2024 she was awarded a National Teaching Fellowship. Cora Beth also researches neurodivergence in the reception of classical myth\, and is currently working on a book on Autism and the Minotaur\, exploring representations of isolation and monstrous difference in popular culture.
