Kevin Holland delivers Key note address at West Sussex deputy and head teacher's conference.
Kevin provided evidence to show how using 'Mantle of the Expert' can engage and motivate children to want to read more, and raise attainment and enjoyment in literacy.
Using evidence from his research , Kevin then related this to literacy, using an Anthony Browne text as a starting point for using 'Mantle of the Expert'. The keynote was followed by a mantle workshop as well as a storytelling and drama session led by Lisa Beresford, a senior Bigfooter in Brighton. We are hoping this will encourage schools to try this great way of working!
