Since 2010

Latin and Greek belong in every state school.

We give state primary and secondary schools free training, resources and expert support to put a classical subject on the timetable — and keep it there.

Why this needs funding

Classics has been disappearing from state schools for decades. We exist to reverse that — and we reach the schools that need it most, not just the ones that already have it.

“Exploring the roots of Latin words empowered pupils who struggle with language. It was as if they could see the formula behind some words.”
