Opportunities for schools

York Theatre Royal's Creative Engagement team works extensively throughout the York and surrounding areas to forge partnerships with schools and colleges, offering activities, workshops and projects to teachers and students. Our experienced and dedicated educational practitioners work closely with teachers to create stimulating programmes in which productions are targeted, plays are unravelled and the processes of making and producing them is explored.

Bespoke workshops, INSETS for teachers, tour and industry days are available upon request, as well as education packs on selected productions.

We are delighted to be working with the Royal Shakespeare Company and York High School as part of the Learning and Performance Network, a three year partnership project to raise the profile of and engagement with Shakespeare in schools across York, North and East Yorkshire. Details of the project and how to get involved will be posted on the website at intervals.
