探花直播Prince of Wales and 探花直播 探花直播 of Cambridge have announced a new partnership, offering training to state school teachers of English and History with an emphasis on subject depth.

探花直播new partnership will build on the enthusiastic response from teachers to 探花直播Prince of Wales鈥檚 Education Summer School over the past four years. 探花直播Education Summer School has offered an annual forum for teachers to step away from the classroom, hear from an inspirational range of speakers, and rediscover the depth and breadth of the subjects they teach. Each year it has been oversubscribed and many delegates have reported that they have changed classroom practices as a result of the course.

A new charity is being formed to take forward the partnership with the 探花直播 of Cambridge. 探花直播partnership will be known as 探花直播Prince鈥檚 Cambridge Programme for Teaching and at its heart will continue to be an annual residential course. Lord Wilson of Dinton, Master of Emmanuel College, 探花直播 of Cambridge and former Cabinet Secretary, will be Chairman of the Charity and the Programme. Bernice McCabe will continue as Co-Director of the School.

Lord Wilson said:

鈥淥ver the last four years, the Education Summer Schools have inspired and enthused English and History teachers around the country to broaden the range and depth of their teaching. It is clear from what they tell us that there is a gap in the market for more teaching career development which focuses on the content of what is taught in the classroom, rather than on professional skills.

鈥淚 hope that 探花直播Prince鈥檚 Cambridge Programme for Teaching will continue to provide a forum for teachers to re-examine their classroom practices and put scholarship and love of learning at the heart of their teaching.鈥

Alan Johnson, Secretary of State for Education and Skills said:

鈥 探花直播Prince of Wales Education Summer School has over the last four years offered valuable professional development opportunities for teachers of History and English. 探花直播new partnership with 探花直播 探花直播 of Cambridge is a very welcome development as it will ensure the continuation and widening of these opportunities which are so beneficial to teachers.鈥

In addition to an annual residential course, the new teaching programme will provide support for regional events, an alumni network and one-day courses and seminars.

More than 80 teachers will attend this year鈥檚 School from June 7-10. 探花直播guest speakers will include Melvyn Bragg, Stephen Fry, Lord Adonis, Robert Harris, Michael Morpurgo, Lynne Truss, Michael Wood, Kate Adie, Professor Gervase Phinn, David Starkey and academics from the English and History faculties at 探花直播 探花直播 of Cambridge. They will give lectures on topics ranging from 鈥淚rony and Shakespeare鈥檚 探花直播Tempest鈥 to Medieval Kingship and teaching Victorian fiction.
