## Description

The West Yorkshire Young Poets Laureate programme will be an inclusive project, rolled out to schools across West Yorkshire in spring 2023 to promote engagement with poetry, creative literacy and to raise aspirations and awareness of pathways to the wider creative industries\. The programme will provisionally be delivered for Yr4 \(8-9, KS2\) and Yr10 \(14-15, KS4\), however this is subject to consultation with schools within the R&D stage, with a view to compatibility with the curriculum and exam scheduling\. Our ambition is that 694 primary schools and 195 secondary schools across the region will engage with the activity\.
