EMC CPD Online: Refresh Your Approach to Teaching An Inspector Calls

Duration
2-3.30pm

One of the most popular texts at GCSE, An Inspector Calls has plenty to offer in the classroom. However, it can be easy for students to get so caught up with the historical context and moral message that they forget to respond to the text as drama, or to analyse Priestley’s methods. We will explore how to keep a balance in teaching the play and offer practical classroom approaches. The course will assume that you are familiar with the play. NB: This is a repeat course.

Online, via Zoom. Details of how to join will be sent before the session.
