Our thoughts are bees: Writers Working with Schools
This book is the definitive resource for writers, teachers and those who co-ordinate writing projects in schools.
Both authors have worked extensively with schools and deliver training and consultancy on writing in education.
Mandy Coe is an award-winning poet for children and adults. Her work has been widely published and broadcast on radio and television.
Hard Water, Jean Sprackland's latest book, was shortlisted for the TS Eliot Prize.
The book, relevant in all parts of Britain, is the result of a year's research, funded by Arts Council England and supported by NAWE together with NALD, The Poetry Society and Writing Together. It covers all the important issues, including how writers can find work in schools; training and professional development; planning and leading workshops; and writers and teachers working in partnership.
NAWE members can order the book at the significantly reduced price of £5 (plus £2 p&p).

"This book is exactly what it should be: useful, practical and detailed but also inspiring, enlightening and far-reaching. Writers as well as teachers will find it invaluable. I recommend it whole-heartedly."
