KS4 Creative Writing Workshops
Rap and spoken word workshops that inspire GCSE students to write, create, and perform with confidence.
Our KS4 creative writing workshops are designed to support GCSE students as they approach exams and coursework. By using rap and spoken word as creative tools, we unlock new ways for students to approach language, structure, and self-expression. These workshops are tailored to build confidence, sharpen literacy skills, and encourage authentic creative voices — skills that extend beyond the classroom and into life.
