Translation Competitions There are two translation competitions which you could consider entering your students for. Check websites for details.
Anthea Bell Prize for Young Translators.
Run by The Queen's Colllege, Oxford, it aims to promote language learning across the UK and to inspire creativity in the classroom. By providing teachers with the tools they need to bring translation to life, we hope to motivate more pupils to study modern foreign languages throughout their time at school and beyond. The Prize is free to enter and open to pupils aged 11-18 at all schools across the UK. The Prize currently offers French (into Welsh and English), German, Italian, Mandarin, Russian and Spanish. Stephen Spender Prize
"The prize is the leading annual prize for poetry in translation, with categories for pupils, teachers and individual young people in the UK and Ireland, as well as an Open category for adults from all over the world." |
This wonderful collection of Modern Italian Art in North London offers learning programmes designed for students from Key Stages 1-5, including exclusive self-guided visits, workshops, resources, CPD events for teachers and Teachers' Private Views.
School visits happen on Mondays and Tuesdays when the Collection is closed to the public and students will have exclusive access to the collection.
