Rob Soames, husband of our ArLT President, has taken over as Director of the 2007 ArLT Summer School in Cambridge.

The Summer School, which is a recognised INSET event for teachers of Classical subjects, runs from Sunday 22nd - Wednesday 25th July 2007 in Corpus Christi College, Cambridge.

A stellar array of lecturers includes Dr. Nigel Spivey on Roman portraits, Professor John Henderson on the Nature of Man, Dr Scott Scullion on Oedipus Tyrannus, Professor Jonathan Powell on Old Latin and Dr Caroline Voute on the transition from A level to university Classics. Bob Lister will run a workshop on improving students' reading skills.

The list can be seen here, and the full timetable (subject to tweaking) is here.

Expect lots more news as Rob works at the details ... Meanwhile, you can contact the Summer School Secretary, Pauline Cox-Smith,
