“An excellent day of fun for the children. They explored 'Where the Wild Things Are' and 'The Enormous Crocodile' through some wonderfully creative dance and drama activities. They were all completely engaged and really enjoyed it.”

“It was a lovely activity to part take in, however the behaviour management needed to be better. The children were getting a little bored and their behaviour started to slip. This meant the session wasn't as benefical for the children as I'm sure was intended.”

“We had this workshop run for all of our classes from Y6 all the way down to Reception. The children were engaged and enthusiastic during their activities and the facilitator was well prepared and fun. While all children enjoyed the activity it was particularly well suited to Y2 and above.”

“Feedback from all the teachers and children was overwhelmingly positive after yesterday's day of 'bringing books to life'. I don't know how Stacey kept going all day - so much energy, enthusiasm and expertise! Please do pass on our thanks to her once again for providing an inspiring day's worth of workshops.”

“All workshops were well received. They were targeted to different age ranges. The teacher was very clear and precise, modelling and demonstrating different dance techniques. Children were engaged and participating for the whole duration. Thank you very much we will be purchasing in the future.”

“We were very fortunate to be welcoming Ben, from West End in Schools, back for the second time this year as part of our activities around World Book Day. Ben was fantastic in the workshops, engaging all the children in the stories, dance and drama and really bringing the stories to life! The organisation and communication prior to the visit was excellent, with all information shared and great contact between the company and the school. I was especially impressed with the interest the company showed in making the workshops as inclusive as possible to support children with a range of needs. Thank you for a great experience for our children! Charlotte Holmes Literacy Co-ordinator Boughton and Dunkirk Methodist Primary School”

“We have used West End in Schools several times, to deliver dance workshops in school and the teachers and children have always been really happy with the sessions. The staff always come to tell me what a fantastic session they've had and how much the children have enjoyed it. Our most recent session was to celebrate World Book Day and focused on Roald Dahl's 'The Enormous Crocodile'. One teacher came to see me and said: "Their sessions are always brilliant, but this one was particularly good, the kids have had an amazing time".”

“The children in 2T at Spilsby Primary Academy were so engaged and excited during their production. It was incredible to see as their teacher how much fun they had! It was also a great CPD opportunity as an ECT teacher to see how you can make drama so engaging and get so much participation out of it. Please come again! The children in Reception at Spilsby Primary Academy love the workshop. All children we so engaged throughout even the children who sometimes find this difficult. As the their teacher it was great to see how to bring a story to life and I shall definitely be using some of these techniques within my own teaching. Thank you so much.”

“Our school participated in "The Enormous Crocodile" dance workshop. Our Y1, 2 and 3 children thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The dance leader brought to life the story for the children which engaged them all. The workshop was well structured and immersive.”

“We had a whole school World Book Day dance event based around Maurice Sendak's Where the Wild Things Are. Each Class absolutely loved their session - each was accessible and well-pitched. From Reception up to Y6, the sessions brought the book to life with great imagination and offered the children another way to express their love of reading and the other worlds out there! We loved it - and highly recommend West End Schools! St John's CE VA Primary School, Ipswich”

“A really enjoyable day for the pupils. It is refreshing to have someone, who is not a teacher, who can bring that sense of the outside world to the pupils. Great subject knowledge by Charlie on Shakespeare and the pupils learned a lot from him.”
