Poetry School links up with Newcastle University to launch MA in poetry writing
The Poetry School has announced its new MA degree in writing poetry, in collaboration with Newcastle University. Starting September 2015, the two-year, part-time course will be based in alternative centres: the Poetry School's Lambeth Walk classrooms in London, or at Newcastle University itself via a combination of small groups and individual teaching. Both groups of students will come together for an annual joint summer school, alternating between London and Newcastle.
London tutors will be Roddy Lumsden and Clare Pollard, while Newcastle tutors will include Sean O’Brien and WN Herbert, and both teaching centres will also have visits from guest tutors. More details
