Its
all happening in The Midlands! Last week I was in Solihull training
teachers and this week in Birmingham; as a result of the Birmingham
meeting a number of vice-principals in the area are considering using Minimus.
Also
this week I have finished 5 weeks of teaching PGCE students.
These
student teachers are not Classicists but are training to teach English
and Modern Foreign Languages. 39 of them completed the course and have
a certificate to say they are qualified to teach the Minimus Primary
Latin course.
This teaching took place at Bristol University and other universities are showing interest.
We had a great bunch of students with a large number of different languages between them. This was a very
stimulating new departure for Minimus and I hope it will be repeated next year. Watch this space!
