PURPOSEFor all those who teach, lecture or organise educational provision at any level in English Schools. To enable professionals concerned with education to reflect on their practice and to inform such reflection by extending their knowledge. Students will be made aware of significant current developments in contemporary pedagogical policy and practice.

DESCRIPTIONUK English and drama teachers can learn a great deal that is relevant to the UK school curricula and teaching from the ways arts organisations bring artistic works to life and devise educational activities for the school groups they work with. To reflect this understanding this unique programme will be taught in two types of setting, the academic arena of the College and the primarily practical settings of Shakespeare's Globe Theatre and other performing arts organisations.

This will enable you to benefit from the theoretical rigour of the College and the practical expertise of Shakespeare's Globe, an institution renowned for its Education programme. You will take a course on Performing Arts in the Classroom and a Practical Placement at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre. You will also be able to choose from other options available in the modular programme and complete a dissertation based on your experiences in the arts organisations you have worked with.
