Safeguarding

Tracey Hammett has been writing for BBC Digital Children’s Channels since 2000, working on several award winning children’s programmes.

She regularly writes for radio and the theatre, as well as visiting schools to promote creative writing and poetry. She also programmes regular events at award-winning London venues, providing a platform for spoken word artists, songwriters and musicians.

Today she spoke to our Level 3 Art Design and Media students on Zoom about her background and experience leading up to writing.

She talked about how she got inspired and showed examples of the children books she has published and that she is about to publish. She also explained the processes and professional standards involved in writing, illustrating, editing and publishing a book.
