This resource was designed and produced by Mark Grist as part of the Well Versed Poetry in Schools project.

Well Versed - a partnership between teachers, writers and up to 20 schools in Norfolk that developed new ways of teaching poetry and performance in schools. The year-long scheme was one of three pilots being delivered across England, led by education charity Creativity, Culture and Education (CCE) and funded by Arts Council England’s Thrive programme.
