Happy Birthday Mary!

On Mary Wollstonecraft’s 263rd birthday, the Wollstonecraft Society are excited to announce the launch of the 'Wollstonecraft School' programme - open now to primary schools across Britain. Taking a whole school approach, primary schools will be able to show how they champion human rights in three easy steps by learning about Mary Wollstonecraft and her legacy. In just one week schools can gain their accreditation as human rights champions, with a certificate from the Wollstonecraft Society.

The programme consists of three sessions:

  • Lesson One - a fun introduction to Mary through an engaging online comic

  • Lesson Two - group work to consolidate your classes newfound learning and put together an assembly to share it with the rest of their school

  • An assembly (and maybe a rehearsal or two!) - then use the powerpoint template provided for your class to share Mary’s story with more members of your school

Once you’ve completed steps 1, 2 and 3 - scan in or photograph five of your learner feedback forms and fill in a quick online survey - and we’ll get your certification of accreditation over to you.
