These resources relate to our programme for students of English supporting Achievement Standards: 1/2/3.2; 1.8 2/ 3.7; 1.11, 2.10, 3.9 .

The programme was developed with Dr David Larsen, English teacher at Western Springs College, and encourages students to make connections between visual and written texts and consider how visual language is used to communicate ideas and themes.

Included are resources related to the facilitated programme, worksheets and activities for independent learning in the Gallery, and teacher-created resources relating to creative writing in a gallery context.

For more information please visit the programme page.

For information about other facilitated programmes, and how to book, please visit the Secondary learning page.
