What Light Through Yonder Window Breaks? It is X28 at the Bradford Literature Festival

Catherine Desborough

What an incredible day filled to the brim with Shakespeare for the X28 students.

On Tuesday the 1st of July we travelled to Bradford for a day dedicated to the Bard. The students took part in four workshops delivered in one of Bradford’s iconic theatres. The sessions looked at rhyme and meter in Shakespeare, ten things we didn’t know about Shakespeare, Shakespeare’s heroes and villains and ended with a fantastic session with Testament, the rapper!

The whole staff team who went with the students were blown away by their impeccable behaviour and willingness to get involved in the sessions. They were a credit to both the school and their families.

The day provided some excellent ideas for GCSE and beyond.
