Creative Writing Course


Description
Creative writing is about expression, learning some basic skills and techniques helps us to express ourselves even more effectively, and have more fun too! On completion of the course, children will be more confident and better equipped to tackle creative writing tasks and exercises. Practice alone is sometimes not enough - we want to share the tips and tricks we believe will give a child's writing an edge, covering the KS2 curriculum and maximising their chances of clearing the creative writing section for the 11+ exam.

Within the course, we delve into the art of crafting various forms of writing, including:
• A Captivating Story
• Formal & Informal Letters
• The Intimate Diary Entry
• A Vivid Account or Report of an Event
• A Thought-Provoking Balanced Argument

Key Features:
• Engaging Video Lessons: Immerse yourself in video lessons that bring the art of writing to life.
• Mentor-Guided Feedback: Personalised feedback from our mentors fine-tunes your skills and boosts your growth.
• Skill-Building Mini Exercises: Elevate your punctuation and grammar prowess through targeted mini exercises.

Who will benefit from our course?
Our creative writing course extends its benefits to all. Whether you're shaping your writing for academic endeavours or indulging in personal creativity, the richness of your writing style will flourish. Notably, those gearing up for exams such as the Grammar School 11+, Independent School Exam, or the SATs KS2 Test will find our course to be an invaluable resource.
