<FONT COLOR="#00007F"><FONT SIZE="4"><FONT FACE="Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:13.0px'>In 2009 we will be again running our Post-Graduate Certificate in the Teaching of Shakespeare in collaboration with the RSC . This year was the first year of our exciting partnership with the RSC and we had a cohort of 25 English and Drama teachers from Victoria and other states <BR>
Let the Royal Shakespeare Company and Melbourne University expert teachers help you inspire your students with passion and understanding for Shakespeare and other classic texts. In the RSC’s own words: “to give young people ownership of Shakespeare by unlocking the power of his language and exploring the contemporary relevance of his plays; to give teachers the confidence, skills and support to engage in the practical teaching of Shakespeare’s plays”. The techniques of the rehearsal room come together with the strategies of the classroom to give you a new way of teaching. <BR>
Even if you are regional or interstate you can take this course, with its two intensive practical weeks (January and July) and supported follow-up work in your own school. <BR>

We are extending the closing date of applications for English teachers to 30 November but you should get your on-line application in as soon as possible.<BR>
