Spring term 2012

We have compiled the report from our autumn 2011 tour of the anti-bullying plays SLAP HAPPY, GOOD2TALK and ASKING FOR IT. Trends that we are so far able to identify include significant shifts in understanding about the impact of using homophobic language as well as an increase in confidence from young people about using their teachers to help resolve bullying behaviour. More details to follow. Our anti-bullying work continues to tour this term, we are zig zagging the country from Somerset to Norfolk via London and Bradford.

"I am pleased that the workshop highlighted the more subtle forms of bullying eg writing in someone's book. It helped children to recognise the various forms of bullying as well as exploring strategies for managing bullying."

We are looking forward to continuing our working relationship with REBOUND.

We will be returning, for the sixth year running, to Northamptonshire to deliver drugs and alcohol drama to the Complementary Education Service. This tour will also include schools in London and Bedfordshire.

"I was very impressed with the group. They engaged the children and were very funny. They also managed to get across a lot of information for the children to think about. They stayed in character really well while hot-seating. I would definitely use them again. Thank you. "

Our sex and relationships education plays will be visiting Warwickshire and Yorkshire this term. "Thank you once again for a fantastic interactive workshop. The pupils were engaged and entertained throughout. This workshop provided an opportunity for the year 6 pupils to consolidate all the work on puberty that they have been doing over the last 3 weeks."
