Can the Bard’s plays be made accessible for pupils of all abilities?
Of course, says Gerard Sargent – the trick is to harness pupils’ creativity in a way that enables them to pick up on the literary and dramatic techniques Shakespeare used, while encouraging them to engage on a deeper level with the themes and imagery they deal with…
Coordinated by the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, Shakespeare Week introduces primary-aged children to Shakespeare’s life, works and times in a fun and engaging way.

There is a series of activities, debate questions and links to further reading.
In this Shakespeare lesson, SEND and personalisation go hand in hand.
It meets the needs of very-low-ability pupils and combines a speech and language programme, a phonics programme and the scheme of learning.
The Royal Shakespeare Company provides a range of active teaching strategies which can be applied not only to Shakespeare, but any text that may provide challenging for our students.
This lesson offers an active and engaging approach to introducing Shakespeare to students of any age. Preparing for a more challenging curriculum, it can be difficult to feel inspired about how to impassion our students with something that we are daunted by ourselves. This lesson explores how Shakespeare can be enriching and inspiring when taught ‘on your feet.’
Teach Shakespeare by getting your class out of their seats.
Students will understand the language better when they live and feel it, as opposed to ‘just’ reading it.
From turning your class into a rowdy crowd of Elizabethans hurling creative insults at each other to convincing your students that they are reporters for the day, engage your teenagers with Shakespeare.
