A comprehensive and practical handbook on the teaching of classical subjects within the UK school system. Changing Classics in Schools ultimately looks towards making classics accessible to a new generation of students. The first part of the book looks at classics in primary schools, and its relationship with the curriculum and the Primary National Strategy. Drawing on evidence from a storytelling project with primary schools in east London, it shows how an oral retelling of Homer's Iliad can both provide a stimulating introduction to the classical world and make a significant contribution to literacy teaching. In the second half of the book, the author examines the role of ICT in promoting effective teaching and learning and in extending access to Latin. Tracing the history of the Cambridge Online Latin Project, he looks at the creation of electronic resources and setting up Latin in schools with no Latin specialist teacher as part of a DfES-funded pilot.
