Exploring Hamlet, our cluster schools present sections from Shakespeare's tale of revenge and power. 

About the programme

Through this national programme, we work together with the Royal Shakespeare Company to change the way children and young people engage, experience and take ownership of Shakespeare in schools. The programme is funded to support children in areas of structural disadvantage and to help level the playing field for all children.

We work with a cluster of local and regional schools that are passionate about exploring Shakespeare actively and through rehearsal room approaches. The programme offers extensive teacher training in the RSC’s pedagogy, which is taken back into the classroom and explored practically with students.
