Alerts from the Literature in Context initiative with a Brontë twist:
Literature in Context is a national initiative that provides teacher CPD and student education programmes all over the country. Using a combination of British Library and local heritage collections and expertise we have developed workshops, resources and CPD activities for English teachers and students that will better meet the needs of visiting English Literature groups. Between now and the end of the March visit your local heritage collection, museum or archive to participate in a CPD event or workshop that will explore 19th century literary themes and suggest ways of critically engaging with challenging material. Some CPD events will also include a creative writing element being run in conjunction with the National Association for Writers in Education (NAWE) and generously funded by the British Library and the MLA.
