FINDING THE WILL

23/07/2026

We have been working with this Trust at Woodfield School during June and July. This is what they wrote on their LinkedIn page (we're pretty chuffed!).

Compass Learning Partnership Trust

There's something truly powerful about seeing young people discover confidence, creativity and joy in places they never expected.

At Woodfield School, students with complex learning needs immersed themselves in Shakespeare through the incredible work of Finding the Will. From Macbeth to A Midsummer Night's Dream, students who may have had little interest in a 400-year-old play became fully engaged, bringing characters, emotions and stories to life.

A birthday tribute to Michael Rosen (one of life's good'uns) plus a spontaneous round of applause for Y4 and a cardboard cut out statue of Zeus.

Michael Rosen is a national treasure. We are proud to say that he is also a Patron of Finding the Will.

Happy Birthday Mr Shakespeare - 462! Thank you for helping us to give thousands of a children a voice they didn't know they had!
