‘The CPD was excellent in offering a range of ideas and specifically on how you get pupils debating in the classroom. As a Head of Department, I shall be using elements of this in the New Year to get our teachers thinking about what we should be looking at with our Year 9 SOW. Many thanks for your time and enthusiasm.’

- John

‘Thanks for hosting this evening’s Parallel Histories workshop. I found it to be accessible, engaging, and informative. Your website has a great wealth of resources and I am looking forward to using them when my school can safely allow after-school clubs, extra-curricular and debating in the classroom.’
