CPD Masterclasses

Alongside our work with children in schools, we also run CPD Masterclasses providing creative training for teachers based on topics we specialise in.

Book your place here!

Join the West End in Schools team and other creative primary school teachers for a free evening of CPD and discussion.

In 2024, we will be running two CPD Masterclasses:

  • Thursday 1 February 2024: Exploring Shakespeare in Primary Schools

  • Thursday 6 June 2024: Exploring Children's Books Through Dance

Following each Masterclass there is always a Q&A and discussion. The evening will also have plenty of opportunities to network with other teachers and our creative team.
