Training

We are happy to run hands on training sessions for schools or libraries wishing to use our resources but not quite confident about working with Minecraft. Our workshops last approximately 2 hours. These involve an introduction to Litcraft; an Idiot’s Guide to Minecraft and training session on iPads and a full explanation of the resource prior to having a go. We will provide you with booklets and provide technical advice about the downloads.

The cost of a training session is £300. However, if your school does not have the funds to pay for the training session then please let us know and we will consider waiving the fee.

The resource is designed to help all children who need to be re-engaged with reading and we do not want to exclude any school for reasons of cost.

There is no limit on numbers and we are happy to train multiple schools at the same time.
