Why we are taking poetry into schools

Talent is evenly distributed; opportunity is not. Here is what the Pun Poets Creative Club is, and why it exists.

Why we are taking poetry into schools

Most poets in our community found poetry by accident — a teacher who read something aloud with feeling, an older sibling's notebook, a video that landed at the right moment. Almost nobody found it because their school offered it.

What a club actually is

Two hours a week. A trained facilitator. A room. Twelve weeks of session plans that move a class from "I don't write" to standing up and performing something they wrote themselves.

What we ask of schools

Very little, deliberately. A room, a staff contact, and pupils who chose to be there. We bring everything else.

If you run a school, or teach in one, register here and we will be in touch.

Revision is where the poem happens

The first draft is you finding out what the poem is about. Everything after that is the work.
