SUMMARY:Classical Mythology and Creative writing at KS2 and KS3: FREE CPD for teachers
DESCRIPTION:From Classics for All… \nClassical Mythology and Creative writing at KS2 and KS3\nFREE CPD for teachers\, Thursday 5th July at UCL – exact time to be confirmed \n\nAward-winning children’s author\, Philip Womack\, will use some of his classically inspired young people’s fiction to explore  the value of mythology as a springboard for creative writing. \nIf you would like to register your interest for this event click here. Look out for further details of this event in emails from me.  It promises to be an engaging and lively afternoon. \n“Ever since I can remember\, I have loved the classics\, starting with the Usborne story of Bellerophon and Pegasus\, and continuing on into the Iliad and beyond. Classical myth is the basis for so much of what is around us: so many writers of all kinds continue to work with myth. Only recently we have had Colm Toibin’s The House of Names (about Orestes)\, and Madeleine Miller’s The Song of Achilles. \nIn this session I will discuss my passion for Classics and classical myth\, introducing you to three works which are based on the myths of Bacchus\, the Minotaur\, and of the Trojan War\, sometimes in unusual and surprising ways. We will engage with creative writing exercises which you can deploy with your students at Key Stages 2 and 3\, and we will discuss ways that you can use myth (and language)  in the classroom and across the curriculum. We will look at the wealth of options available for your next steps\, from useful and entertaining interpretations to the source materials themselves. This will be an exciting and stimulating event which will help to raise the profile and enjoyment of classics in your schools.”

Join us in June to explore how the Birmingham and West Midlands Schools Classics Hub can support the development of Classics teaching in your school. \nWe will cover: \n\nWays to develop existing Classics provision;\nHow to get new courses up and running;\nHow to develop new provision: from after-school clubs to timetabled lessons;\nHow ancient languages can be introduced as part of English\, MFL\, or literacy lessons;\nHow Classics can be embedded across the curriculum\, through History\, English\, Drama\, RE\, Science\, PSHE\, etc.;\nHow to access Classics for All funding and training opportunities;\nHow to access post-training support.\n\nThe hub works in partnership with Classics for All (CfA)\, a national charity whose funds are available to state schools to introduce or enhance Classics provision. CfA can support access to teacher training and the cost of cover\, as well as CPD training and mentoring. With CfA support\, non-specialists can quickly get additional subjects such as Latin up and running\, whether as after-school enrichment clubs or on timetable across key stages 3\, 4\, and 5. \nIn addition to funds\, schools can access support from the hub in terms of teacher mentoring and ongoing subject support\, as well as student enrichment. The hub’s links to the University of Birmingham mean hub member schools have access to a wealth of Classics activities for students. These include guest lectures from prominent Classicists\, subject knowledge enhancement lectures and workshops\, exam preparation conferences\, and extra-curricular enrichment\, such as archaeology handling sessions. \nIf you would like any further information\, or to register for the event\, please email the Hub Co-ordinator\, Polly Stoker: p.stoker@bham.ac.uk \nPlease register by 2nd June.
