Teaching & Learning at the Classical Civilisation CPD Day 2026
The CA Classical Civilisation CPD day was held at the University of Warwick on 17th June 2026, with more than 100 teachers joining us from across the country.
Sixteen workshops were delivered by teachers across all settings (state, independent, FE, HE) on how to improve teaching Classical Civilisation at KS3, GCSE and A level.
A common theme was recruitment and retention, closely connected to the need to build students’ confidence and their skills in literacy, essay-writing and analytical thinking.
Our speakers identified a range of pedagogical techniques and tools through which to address these areas. We’ve summarised the tips and advice shared onto a document you can download below, which also includes a full list of the workshops delivered on the day, and links to the resources shared.
Further case studies and pedagogical approaches can be found in the book Classics in Action.
