NewsWise workshops
Children become journalists and enter the world of the newsroom in our interactive virtual sessions
Our workshops are immersive newsroom experiences for pupils aged 7-11, generating curiosity and critical engagement with the news. The sessions are designed to work as an exciting hook for schools who are running the NewsWise project with their classes.

In role as journalists, pupils are introduced to key concepts and skills that they will explore in greater detail in the unit of work, such as how the news is made, issues of fake news, the importance of balance in news stories, and producing their own written or audio news reports.
The full NewsWise package includes:
  • Expert teacher training in critical literacy, writing a news report and teaching an immersive news writing project

  • Interactive workshop to kick off the unit of work, delivered by the NewsWise team

  • A fully-planned unit of work with all resources and lesson plans

  • A set of Guardian newspapers for each class

  • Opportunities for your class to meet a real journalist

  • I cannot fully express how brilliant the workshop was. Everything was so meticulously organised from resources to delivery and it was a pleasure to be a part of and witness. Even now, days on, the children are still reeling from the experience and talking about it at every opportunity.
    We thought this was excellent. The children were all excited, the tasks were appropriate for the age group and the stories were interesting.
