Inspire your children with poetry!

As part of our annual CLiPPA (Centre for Literacy in Primary Poetry Award) celebration we invite schools to take part in our shadowing scheme. We provide free teaching plans and video resources to support your class to 'shadow' each shortlisted poetry collection and perform their favourite poems. We invite schools to send in videos of their children performing for our team to watch and one school per shortlisted collection will be chosen to perform live at the award ceremony, alongside the shortlisted poets.

Scroll down to take a look at performances from our 2023 winning shadowing schools, to inspire your performances!

Register your school for this year's CLiPPA Shadowing Scheme!
