Key Stage 4
Venue Region:
London
Summary:
Only 10 students allowed at any one time so extremely manageable with one teacher. Students split into two groups (V competitive) and have to create a newspaper of their own including Title and price. Students are then given specific roles such as Editor, Entertainment and Features writer. Students then write their own news articles which must include a breaking news item with deadlines looming.
Students are given an A3 colour copy of their 'page' before they leave.
Also part of the package is a tour of the printers itself where students learn how newspapers are produced - Excellent!
