The Royal Armouries Museum, Leeds and The British Library will come together to explore different ways of using historical collections to achieve literacy outcomes for school groups across KS2-4.

Looking at case studies, we will discuss the good, the bad and the surprising. Throughout the session, we will explore:

– How various types of historical artefacts have been used for literacy outcomes
– Different workshop approaches and how this variation can deepen attainment and engagement for pupils
– How to support teachers with such engagement
– Evaluation options

Case studies will include the Mightier than the Sword KS2 Oracy Project, and the Shakespeare on Stage and Page: Romeo and Juliet Take Over Day for year 9 students. Other case studies are likely to be discussed.

You will be encouraged to share your experiences and ask questions of the presenters and other participants.
