Right, I am putting it out there. Unfortunately, my daily commute is becoming more stressful and expensive, so I am looking to work in Manchester. If anything comes up in your school that you think I might be suitable for, please do drop me a DM.

Hi Team English could you spread the word about this Poetry competition? Wonderful judges incl Linda Newbery and medals at the House of Commons! Closing date 31/5, still time to write something lovely for nature @noopuddles Becky Wood Email poems to [email protected]

Does anyone from Team English have a replacement text for The Boy at the Back of the Class by Onjali Q. Rauf with similar themes? We've used it in the past as part of the transition from Year 6, but a lot of primary schools are now teaching it. #TeamEnglish

Hi all, I hope everyone has had a good couple of days. Does anyone have a knowledge organiser for AIC, ACC, Macbeth and P&C poetry that they could send me please? 🙏 Team English Jennifer Webb Laura Webb Stuart Pryke

Team English can you help? My son is in year 7 and has an exam coming up where he needs to write PEARL paragraphs. He is struggling to know what the L is for. He knows it stands for Link, but he doesn’t know what that means.
I haven’t a clue…

Team English I feel like I remember someone posting a document of [if the question is about ‘effects of conflict’ and the named poem is ‘Remains’ the names poem compared it to ‘X.’] Now did I dream this or does it exist? 😂 Jennifer Webb Laura Webb Matt Lynch Stuart Pryke ?

Team English Help please.

About to teach Oscar Wilde’s Picture of Dorian Gray for the first time at A Level.

Can anyone point me to resources, readings, SOWs anything…?

Looking at possibly bringing in a new (short) novel for Y8 that presents a wider world focus to decolonise our curriculum - any suggestions Team English

Dr. M Boyd Litdrive UK Becky Wood Chris Curtis British Library MASSOLIT Team English Shameless self promotion - amzn.eu/d/2od4eYT. Half the book is R&J. For free resources, I popped one on LitDrive CPD ‘From Nightingales to Cockatrices: Birds in R&J’

Bronte Team English I use this grid at the start. A problem with A Level mark schemes is they assume knowledge of a whole text, or even 2 for prose. It’s too hard, and demoralising, to use the mark scheme straight away. I highlight on this and stress that mastering does not mean it’s all perfect.
