Please note – you will be asked to complete a series of questions to review your practice as part of your booking.
Designed by the St Mary's team, this self-review will help you reflect on your current personal identity as a writer. Research shows that teachers who write, teach writing best. Being a teacher writer is crucial to the development of young writers, fostering a writing for pleasure ethos, and is a core professional responsibility.
