After a year of development, theatre, education and tech company C&T are ready to launch their new version of Prospero, the company’s digital creativity platform. We need a number of schools to help us explore the potential of this award-winning platform and would love to explore the idea of a partnership with you.

Prospero allows anyone to build and share their own interactive learning experiences rooted in drama and creativity. It’s the perfect tool for injecting creativity into thematic approaches to learning. In 2019 Prospero was named ‘Global Education innovation’ by the Helsinki-based education think tank HundrED and now the latest version of the platform raises the bar still further, with tools for enquiry-based learning, collaboration (including schools around the world) and assessment.

Now C&T wants to partner with a number of primary schools across the UK who would love to collaborate with our team of artists on explore the possibilities of drama and ICT together. The offer is simple: together we will identify themes and ideas that resonate with your children and objectives. We will then work with you to design interactive learning experiences in Prospero and make these available across your school. We will ensure there are opportunities for international collaboration as part of the experience, connecting your classroom with others in places such as New York City and Nairobi, Kenya.

The project will be a mixture of real and virtual learning, making full use of Prospero’s blended learning tools. That means it will always be safe to use, responding to the particular social distancing, Covid-19 and health and safety requirements your schools is observing at any given time. We want our team of theatre makers and artists to be a part of activities in your school, but safety issues are paramount and because of Prospero’s online tools distance are not a barrier to participation. C&T will provide ongoing support and training and there will be the chance to work and share with other schools across the UK. Timing and duration of the project will be arranged to suit you. There is no fee.

If you would like to find out more about this opportunity, contact Paul Sutton at C&T. Paul will arrange a time to talk with you to discuss the project, your needs and circumstances. This is a limited time offer. Please contact us by Friday 28th May. We look forward to hearing from you!
