NEW RESOURCE: I’ve been experimenting with @Xris32 style ‘phrase banks’ over the past term to much success! Here are the AIC ones I’ve used in my class. Great discussions had over what each phrase means and how we can use them appropriately and effectively in our writing. Use/chuck: dropbox.com/scl/fo/ptem7ct…

I am looking at redesigning our KS3 English Assessments - could anyone provide a rough idea how how you assess at KS3? Additionally, how many summative assessment/ assessment points do you have during the academic year? @Team_English1 #assessments #teaching #english

If you want a short, savage novel about a frozen post-nuclear world, look no further than Anna Kavan’s magisterial Ice (1967). Unsettling, hallucinogenic, it feels like Kafka, Baudelaire and Brian Aldiss have taken a violent amount of drugs and written a book together.
