How do you feel your school will benefit from holding a mini BWA competition?
"By providing the pupils with a greater opportunity for creative imaginative writing, particularly those preparing for their GCSE examinations. Our focus group would be in the senior school i.e. 11-16 yr olds. As we are no longer restricted by the key stage 3 national curriculum there are also opportunities for us here to raise the profile in an exciting and challenging way"

Partnership opportunitiesWe're always looking for forward-thinking organisations and individuals to help us make the inaugural Brit Writers' Awards a runaway success.The Brit Writers' Awards promises to become the biggest annual event on the UK's literary calendar. It provides the first ever 'springboard' for unpublished and emerging writers of every age group, community and writing style, and is offering £10,000 to the overall winner – the largest prize fund ever offered to unpublished writers. Our dream is to open the door to an industry that traditionally can feel hidden to many people, and show the UK that creative writing is an exciting, expressive and mind-expanding art form that is accessible and relevant to everyone. |
