From cobbles to the classroom


Julia Haworth, who played Claire Peacock in Coronation Street, is training to become a teacher.

She is currently completing a teaching qualification at Bolton College in conjunction with the University of Bolton. And as part of her practical teacher training she has been leading lectures in TV and film for Bolton College's performing arts students, giving them the opportunity to develop their skills in acting for the camera.

She told the Bolton News:  “As an actor still working professionally within the entertainment industry, the knowledge and skills I am teaching to the Performing Arts students here at Bolton College are 100 per cent up to date, accurate and relevant. This is imperative in a rapidly changing industry and in helping the learners with their future employability."

It is not the first time, students have been taught by the stars of the much loved television soap, Julie Hesmondhalgh, Coronation Street’s Hayley Cropper has visited the college to lead acting workshops.
