On Friday 28th April 2023, the Department of Classics and Ancient History hosted our annual Classical Civilisation Teachers' Day. Our Warwick academics delivered lectures on all components of the OCR Classical Civilisation A-level specs (see schedule below), providing thoughts on modern scholarship and useful texts to give to students, all in the surrounds of our lovely new Faculty of Arts Building with its amazing antiquities room (below). 30 teachers from across the country attended the event.
