"It is remarkable that each year you give us something special both in terms of the drama performances but also in the workshops. The responses of the pupils throughout the day and their comments to us the following week indicate just how much they enjoyed and appreciated it"
Head of PSHE Haberdashers Aske's School
We invented a 'fly-on-the-wall' documentary called 'Beyond the Surface' and created a live show and a film around it. The episode "Bullied Britain" is fast paced, involving and informing as we flick between two young people watching the show, the secretly recorded people in the show and a range of other programmes, adverts and media influences.​
​
The format is brilliant for involving everyone as it creates scope to look at all aspects related to bullying including the types, causes, effects and where to seek help and support.
​
The film project for years 5 & 6 includes a full length film, teaching resources, optional live or digital workshops by our team and staff training.
​
The live shows are adapted for years 3,4,5, & 6 and are followed by interactive workshops with our experienced performer facilitators.
