The Iris Project encompasses a range of initiatives throughout the UK which promote Classics in state primary and secondary schools, as well as the wider community. Below are details of the kinds of things we offer. Please click on the links to read more, and contact us through the site with questions and bookings:

Workshops
We run workshops in all aspect of Classics -- languages, myth, history, religion, literature and others -- for schools. Recent examples have included mosaic-making, Graffiti in the Ancient world and An Introduction to Classical drama and myth.

Courses
Term or year long courses in Latin and Ancient Greek are offered to state schools and community centres.

Talks and Themed Days on Classical Topics
Recent examples include The Aeneid, Classical myth, and An
Introduction to the Latin language.

Iris Magazine
The project's magazine presents Classical subjects with a new and eclectic slant. It is published three times each year and is free to state sector schools that do not yet teach latin and by subscription to everyone else

Anyone who is interested in offering support for the project is warmly invited to get in touch.
