Go back to school for a slap up meal that nods playfully to those unlamented lunches of childhood (don't worry, they won't be serving up lumpy custard.)

 SCHOOL DINNERS is a groundbreaking fine dining experience, introducing provocative cultural engagement in a distinctly ‘old school’ environment.

Set in the stirring Victorian surroundings of the Central Foundation Boys’ School, you will begin, of course, with Registration, before being reassured by bespoke cocktails (for anyone suffering a flashback).

They will even provide a bike shed, behind which reprobates may smoke.

This term's timetable sees actress and comedian Gemma Whelan (Game Of Thrones, One Man Two Guvnors) hosting, reprising her celebrated role as hilarious Headmistress, Chastity Butterworth. Award-winning Submarine author Joe Dunthorne steps up as Head of English for the evening whilst Music And Movement is in the incomparable (thank goodness) hands of tap-dancing enthusiast Jenny Fawcett (comedian Louise Ford) who'll teach us the 'scuff and brush'. Over in Poetry Corner will be the slam poet champion and poetry workshop facilitator Hollie McNish. More incredible teachers, speakers and raconteurs will be announced in the coming weeks.

Fuelled by the belief (sadly from personal experience) that education can be wasted on the young, SCHOOL DINNERS will be a unique night of gastronomy and enlightenment, while also providing much-needed funds for an impressive local school.
