‘Without the project, I don’t think I would have had the confidence to cascade to my colleagues and try new things…Now I’m very keen to share how to storytell with others. I love stories, I always use them, and I feel a lot more confident.’
Teacher Jade Matthews on her experience with The Story Exchange, funded through our Teacher Development Fund
