Schools Q&A with Alex Wheatle

Award winning YA author, Alex Wheatle looks forward to answering questions put by young people who have engaged with his work in some way.  Whether you have read Alex’s huge collection of YA fiction, his historic novel ‘Cane Warriors’, watched the Steve McQueen ‘Small Axe’ films, for which Alex was a writing room consultant, as well as being the subject of one of the films, or have engaged with Alex’s work in any other way, we want to hear from you. 

A pdf resource has been produced to support engagement in classrooms or home setting.

The event is suitable for pupils aged 12-18. Anyone is welcome to attend. Please book on Eventbrite.

Pupils wishing to put forward questions for Alex to answer during the event should send these in via a teacher or parent to k.tew@mmu.ac.uk before the end of February.
