"Even the students who don’t always find art that easy really enjoyed it because they could make something that they were really proud of, so I think it’s accessible to everybody, whatever skill level they’re at. It’s amazing, really, that they can all enjoy it and all come out with something that is equally good."
Nadine Sender, Head of Art, The Purcell School "They don’t get many opportunities to do art or drama on a large scale, so mixing all those together has been very attractive [...] I’ve seen them coming out of rehearsals, and they have definitely learned something new on each occasion. The educational benefits of this have been huge for us." David Thomas, Headteacher, The Purcell School |

"This has been an absolutely fantastic experience for all of the pupils involved. One of the nicest things for us was having the chance for pupils of different age groups to work together [...] It's a lovely opportunity to do something slightly outside the normal curriculum; there isn’t always a lot of time to do that in schools [...] The school didn’t have any hesitation at all about going into this project. It’s been something that we’ve been able to embrace and make work for us."
Paul Elliott, Head of Drama, The Purcell School "It was a fascinating experience watching the puppet process develop throughout the year. I know the children loved it, and watching them backstage really was an amazing moment as a teacher. I've never seen a whole class pull together and cooperate so completely." Matthew, Assistant Headteacher, Highwood Primary School |
