Beyond the classroom
Students examine our collections
We promise you lively and interactive sessions of the highest quality. From literature to heritage our sessions will be directly useful to your students curricular and examination requirements. Our sessions also provide you with excellent opportunities for out of class assessment.
We look forward to working with you, inspiring your students, and enriching their experience of William Shakespeare in memorable and rewarding ways.
If you are interested in bringing your pupils to Stratford to spend a few days with us we can arrange full courses lasting several days. Have a look on our universities page to find out more about the range of sessions on offer for longer courses - all our sessions can be tailored to the experience and needs of your pupils.
Testimonials:
'Your knowledge and enthusiasm really brought the subject to life. We will be returning to Stratford in the future and we will definitely be calling on you again' (Childwall School, Liverpool)
'It was really cool to learn about Elizabethan times and Shakespeare's life and times before visiting his birthplace' (student comment)
Please search our database to find a course to suit your needs. We hope you find something suitable but if you don't it is still worth getting in touch as we may be able to help create something to suit you. We also have a range of freelancers who we can call on or put you in touch with if we are unable to help you directly.
We look forward to welcoming you and your pupils in Stratford-upon-Avon.
The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust is a supporter of the Arts Award, a scheme set up to support young people engage with the arts and build their creative skills. In addition to sessions and courses we run creative, family-based events throughout the year.
