A Pirate Take Over: breaking the rules to empower our students’ voices

Katie St. Quinton
Heather Wade, Georgina Blakeley and Peter Roberts
Would you like to become a pirate? This workshop shares our experience of recent ‘Pirate Take Over’ events, reimaging student representation. The widely transferable approach is useful to anyone looking to challenge any existing processes, encourage student confidence in raising their voice (including in the classroom), or develop positive group dynamics.
