BGU graduate's production to run in West End!
Bishop Grosseteste University (BGU) graduate Daniel Swift is once again making waves in the world of theatre! This time, taking a production aimed at people labelled with profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD) to the West End and is the very first of its kind. In 2019, he founded Concrete Youth, a theatre company for the purpose of creating more accessible shows and events. 'I am thrilled to share some exciting news with you; we will soon be announcing that our next production will run in the West End this autumn. This marks a significant milestone as it will be the first West End production specifically designed for audiences labelled with profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD). I loved my time at the university. It was transformational for my practice and introduced me to the world of inclusive arts and education. The educators in the Drama department were exceptional and continue to support my work years later.' Daniel Swift Sensory Cinders is a new sensory pantomime adaptation of Cinderella for audiences labelled with PMLD, featuring original music that explores themes of identity, self-expression, transformation, magic, personas, authenticity, and connectedness. What does it mean to pursue self-love and understanding in a world that doesn’t understand you? This marks the first West End show and the first inclusive sensory pantomime specifically designed for audiences such as this. The production features specially designed sensory materials by Henshaws Arts & Crafts, a Yorkshire-based collective supporting local learning-disabled visual artists. The show marks all the artists’ professional theatre debuts. Sensory Cinders is a co-production from the multi-award-winning sensory theatre company Concrete Youth and the nationally recognised venue Barnsley Civic. The production is presented in partnership with @sohoplace and Henshaws Arts Centre. The show is supported by Sheffield Theatres and Arts Council England. and the production's development was supported by the National Theatre's Generate programme.

Primary Ed students host The Peckover Primary School
We were thrilled to welcome The Peckover Primary School to our campus recently, so their students could experience university life on campus for a day. They were hosted by three second year Primary Education Students, Molly Sim, Bella Cook and Olivia Sutcliffe along with their tutors. The day started with a welcome and question and answer session, followed by a tour of campus and craft activities. The children explored the range of subjects that can be studied at university and made their own mortar boards ready for an end of day mini graduation. The staff and children enjoyed the event so much they have requested to come again next year with their Y6 pupils. Mrs Parsley said: "Thank you so much to BGU for an amazing day and for being flexible and making the day so enriching and exciting. The second year students were absolutely brilliant with our children and so patient and supportive." -
MA student awarded scholarship
Bishop Grosseteste University (BGU) student Daniel Kuu-Erah who is studying an MA in Education and TESOL, recently received a GREAT Scholarship funded by the British Council and the UK Government’s GREAT British Campaign to study at BGU! When Daniel returned from a network event held in Birmingham (Edgbaston Stadium) for all GREAT scholars, he couldn't wait to tell everyone about it. It was an amazing programme, and an opportunity for me to meet great personalities from the UK and other parts of the world! Daniel Kuu-Erah Sophie Hadfield who is the BGU International Support Officer said: He showed me his GREAT Scholarship certificate and told me about the inspiring former GREAT scholars he met, as well as several dignitaries. As he progresses his dissertation, Daniel continues to consider his future next steps – he has been applying to undertake a PhD specialising in linguistic discourse analysis. Daniel is keen to see further promotion of BGU in Ghana as he would like other potential students benefit from the same positive educational experience he has received so far from BGU. -
