Espresso are running FREE Writers Workshops for Kirklees primary schools. The following information comes from Helen Daykin of Espresso:

‘I thought you might want to know that we are running some FREE Writers Workshops in conjunction with the YHGfL.  The workshops are aimed at Literacy and ICT Co-ordinators although anyone with a teaching responsibility is more than welcome to attend.  The workshop looks at how to engage the reluctant writer with the use of digital content using Photo Story and Movie Maker.  The content we use will be taken from Espresso but if a school doesn’t have our service they can use other digital content that they may be using in school.

As well as walking away with many great ideas to use with their pupils at school the attendees can opt for a full 4 week free trail of the Espresso content for their school if they don’t already subscribe.  This is great way of teachers having a look and a try of Espresso with their pupils and teachers in school enabling them to make an informed decision. Schools can just opt for a trial if they aren’t able to make of the half day workshop sessions.’
