Storycraft by Jon Mayhew

An inspiring and practical resource to support secondary school teachers in developing their students’ creative writing. At a time when the curriculum is becoming more and more about rote learning and memorisation, Storycraft provides teachers with engaging tasks around narrative writing that have been designed to boost learners’ confidence and cultivate their creativity. Written by two fiction writers and English teachers with over 40 years’ combined experience in education, Storycraft will satisfy a hunger in classrooms beyond just those of English departments – helping pupils to problem-solve creatively and to carve out originality in their work. The book packs in expert advice relating to idea generation and the nature of story, as well as tips on effective pre-exam behaviours, neatly packaged together with off-the-peg activities that can be used in the classroom immediately.
Martin Griffin has 20 years' experience teaching post-16 students, and has been a head of faculty, assistant head teacher and deputy head teacher. He was the director of sixth form at The Blue Coat School and now works with schools and colleges to design and implement character development and mindset programmes. Having worked as an English and SEN teacher for 25 years, Jon Mayhew is now in demand on the school event circuit - delivering writing workshops to students from Key Stage 2 to sixth form. He is also a Royal Literary Fund Writing Fellow, helping students to improve their academic writing at Chester University. Jon is the author of the Monster Odyssey series and the multi-award-winning Mortlock.
