Students responded really well to the variety of tasks and enjoyed the challenges they faced over the course of the day. Overall, a really positive experience!

    A brilliant morning. This is exactly what a 21st Century PGCE should be delivering. The trainees found it really useful for their classroom practice and for extending their thinking on media literacy.

    Really useful ideas at a time when our young people need to be equipped with the skills to question what they are reading. Really informative and great that it was packed with info!
