Through its Professional Development programme, RSC Learning works in partnership with a wide range of teacher training organisations across the UK and abroad.
The focus of the Professional Development programme for teachers is on practical, experiential approaches to learning about Shakespeare and aspects of theatre practice. The workshop leaders are RSC practitioners with first-hand classroom experience.
Schools, LEAs and other educational organisations wishing to host RSC Outreach Days at their own venues are invited to choose one-day workshops from the following menu:
For secondary schools:
- In role approaches to teaching Shakespeare at KS2 and KS3
- Teaching Shakespeare at KS3: A Practical Approach
- Teaching Shakespeare at KS4: A Practical Approach
- Exploring Shakespeare's Language (can be shaped for KS3 - KS5)

For primary schools:
- Making theatre with children
- Introducing Shakespeare in the Early Years
- Introducing Shakespeare at KS2: A Practical Approach
- Drama and Writing at KS2
- In role approaches to teaching Shakespeare at KS2 and KS3
