Corridors through time

Description

Imagine going to a school in which to get to your classroom you walk through the Jurassic age! For children at Charlemont Primary School, this is what they encounter everyday. Headteacher Peter Wallington has spent the last three years turning his school into an interactive learning area based on the curriculum. The pupils are able to gain a sense of the history they are studying by walking throughout the school. The programme looks at how the constructed corridors have enriched the learning environment for the children. A professional company was hired to design and create the majority of the corridors but the initial work was carried out by the school. It was the school's ideas, visions and inspiration that have provided the children with an area in which they can be surrounded by curriculum topics.
