The University of Sydney has enlisted theatre legends John Bell and Andrew Upton to help promote the importance of arts education. Spearheaded by Professor Robyn Ewing, the public events aim to highlight how enriching education with the arts can improve student outcomes and engagement. John Bell will discuss making Shakespeare accessible to students through performance. Andrew Upton will lead a workshop on using creative writing to teach literature. The goal is to boost teacher confidence in integrating the arts across the curriculum.
