The Newspaper Works will now provide management and logistical support to the Copy School previously managed by AWARD.

Copy School engages some of Australia’s leading advertising creative writers and creative directors to pass on their knowledge and experience.

The two groups have also worked together to create a new brand identity for Copy School, led by The Newspaper Works’ Head of Design, Camila Carmody.
