@BarbaraBleiman Perhaps not widely used but we have studied 'Arcadia', 'Hamnet' and 'How to Be Both' for NEA and it would be great to have something on these. And yes, anything on Woolf would be very welcome!

Calling A Level English teachers: I'm thinking about articles on modern drama texts for emag. What would you be most interested in? Here's a list of some possibilities - we've featured some a lot, some less so. (I'm leaving out 'Streetcar' as that's so obviously popular!)

We are very proud of Jack and his success in the @EngMediaCentre competition. It is a great competition that encourages a thoughtful and creative response to reading that we hope to champion in our teaching. @ChristColBrecon @DHA_CCB

The Post-16 subject choices you make are really important.
E.g. To apply for #Medicine here at Christ's College, Cambridge, you need CHEMISTRY and TWO other subjects out of BIOLOGY, MATHS and PHYSICS at A level or equivalent.

So much fun on the trails this morning, running Mynydd Illtud Common. We surfed bracken bails, saw curlews, heard skylarks and we could smell spring …@BreconBeaconsNP @RobGMacfarlane @RGS_IBG @The_GA

#internationalwomensday Book 4. Finding women to read in the GCSE specs gets a little tricky - only 8 of the choice of 26 texts are written by women. But Dr Evans’ class are enjoying this as their 19th Century text. instagram.com/p/Cphyk0JodZV/…

Agrippina was so powerful that her son, Nero, tried to kill her several times. He also failed several times, partly because so many would-be-assassins were too afraid of her.

@timothycbaker Taught Barbara Trapido, Anita Desai, Alexandra Fuller, Helen Dunmore Muriel Spark and others when there was coursework . . .

@timothycbaker The other statistic that will be of interest is that out of all this choice the vast majority of pupils will be taught the same texts. The length, budget & choosing a text with lots of prepared resources will also influence this.

Yikes. (But also, why A Christmas Carol and An Inspector Calls? Do students like them? Do teachers like them? Is there anything particularly interesting to say about them? Just not what I'd pick to make young people passionate about literary study.)

There's so much you can do with an English degree! It trains you to build arguments, create engaging narratives, analyse and critique text, communicate persuasively and recognise other points of view - it opens up the world!
