I'm currently the head of English and raising standards leader at a secondary school in Birmingham. I'm passionate about my subject and passionate about ensuring that the young people we serve leave education with a high competency in English. Prior to teaching I worked in the radio industry as a presenter for 7 years and so when I became a teacher I enjoyed the opportunity to teach Media studies. You'll find hundreds of English and Media studies resources.

4 fully differentiated (by colour) resources to support the teaching of extracts taken from 19th century texts with paper 2 comparison skills incorporated. (Theme of education) The aim is for students to gain experience in handling extracts from 19th century literature but also draw comparisons to modern non fiction texts. These resources therefore help students to address the literature criteria and language paper 2 criteria. Students will develop skills in: - true or false - synthesis - language analysis - explore context - social class Students will study an extract from Wuthering Heights on the theme of childhood and will analyse language and explore context. Students will look at the presentation of childhood and compare to modern society. (Extracts included) Students will then read a modern news report on the effect of social class and pupil progress and draw comparisons.

AQA power and conflict 9-1 Sample assessment 2 - new specification specimen exam question - London

(0)
With very few sample assessment materials provided by the exam boards I have created my own. They have been made to look exactly like the assessments that students will sit in the real 9-1 examinations and are phrased in the same ways too. This paper uses London as the printed poem. The student responses can then be marked using the relevant mark scheme for Power and conflict poetry.
