‘The courses Acting Up, Writing Down have delivered for me have been of the highest quality with detailed planning, clearly defined objectives and a range of stimulating activities. Both PhilippaHampton and Louise Hammond are professionals of the highest calibre who are able to communicate effectively and have shown themselves capable of adapting materials to meet audience needs. They have shown an excellent ability to adapt their techniques to provide history, geography and RE examples…...
I certainly plan to book Acting Up, Writing Down again as part of next year’s CPD programme and would recommend them unreservedly to other local authorities/CPD Providers.

First and Nursery School
We
were delighted by the work that Philippa and Louise
undertook with our children. They were eager to spend time discussing the drama
project with us and to tailor make our sessions. Each
session was carefully planned and professionally executed. Philippa
and Louise worked together effectively to demonstrate and model their
activities and the children responded with enthusiasm.
It was a pleasure to see the
children’s confidence grow and to see them discovering and developing their
skills and talents. They felt empowered and took an immense pride in the
Christmas production which was the end product of the workshop sessions. I would recommend Philippa
and Louise’s company Acting Up, Writing Down unreservedly.
