A quick help guide for students

A range of 6 possible assessment tasks for your classes. Could be used for mock exams or in classroom assessments. They have been modelled on the new English Literature specification for 2017 onwards.

A really simple resource that can show the progress a student has made in any lesson. You can even use as a starter and plenary.
