School Author Visits - Booking Requirements


Recommended booking requirements:

  • The only equipment needed for any of the performances is a table and chair.
  • For workshop sessions a board (whiteboard, blackboard or flip-chart) and appropriate tools for writing/erasing are all that is required.
  • Whether or not pupils will require paper and pens will usually depend on setting, duration of session, pupil numbers, their ages and aptitudes, etc.
  • For larger audiences or for spaces with poor acoustics a body-microphone would be useful, but is not essential.
  • If there’s a final read-around for which a large number other pupils / staff / parents are present, a standard hand-held microphone might be useful.
