Coram Shakespeare Schools

Coram Shakespeare Schools Coram Shakespeare Schools is a cultural education charity that gives young people across the UK the confidence and skills to succeed in life.

Coram Shakespeare Schools Foundation (CSSF) is a cultural education charity that gives young people across the UK the confidence to succeed in life. Our charity’s carefully tailored programmes, curriculum resources and standalone workshops improve teamwork and educational attainment. 97% of teachers say their students work better together as a team and 81% report improvements in academic attainment. We engage diverse groups, including those with special educational needs and from minority ethnic backgrounds, and are passionate about reaching those living in areas of deprivation. With us, children gain the crucial skills they need to succeed in life. As Yusuf, aged 10 puts it: “In the future it helps you with a job, if you didn’t do this you may not have the guts.”

By delivering these results in every type of school, CSSF promotes social inclusion and improves life chances.

A new name. The same mission.

Coram Shakespeare Schools Foundation is now Coram Shakespeare Schools.

We have simplified our name to make it clearer who we are and what we do.

Our work remains exactly the same: giving young people across the UK opportunities to build confidence, creativity and skills for life through Shakespeare.

And we remain proudly part of Coram.

Team Away Day 2026! 🎭🌈

We started the day by breaking out of rooms in a disused tube station in an immersive experience that was fun as well as intense! Then it was off for lunch, before heading to The Globe to catch As You Like It.

A nice end to the summer term before schools return and the Festival commences.
