It’s superb. And in my opinion, so much better than Wuthering Heights. (Runs and hides) but not as good as The Tenant of Wildfell hall. Ann Brontë is the lesser known but superlative novelist 🙈

Hi- could anyone point me towards someone who produced a month teaching learning booklet for colleagues? Recent research, articles, science of learning, direct instruction, retrieval practice…. Something like that. Interested in launching our own and could do with some advice. Thanks

Someone got me this as a Christmas present. It’s superb!

Superb, as always… legend!

This is going to be superb. Congrats Donal!

A superb production. I was lucky enough to get a ticket for this. Andrew Scott was a brilliant Hamlet.

Have been teaching Small Things Like These this year. It’s utterly superb. Excellent film too.

Listened to this earlier. Love stuff like this. Also recommend:

Geek alert! This was great this morning. Very interesting!

Surprised I don’t have this considering how much red wine was consumed last night

I have a student doing this for their A2 coursework text. It is excellent. Lots to think and write about. Highly recommend for coursework/ NEA.

Best decision I’ve ever made was to move home after 18 years in England. Never looked back. Just need to find a permanent job now!! Few and far between

Beautifully put. Thank you, Paddington. ❤️

Miss Manchester…

I loved it. A slow- burner, taking its time to tell the story

Stunning

Beautifully shot. I loved the fact that it took its time to play out.

I was just saying this. Would love to join a book club! Any that I have seen are for females

I loved it.

Gorgeous

So important. I always forget to do this and I need to be better at doing this.

The fall of Eng Lit What is the cause, is it a problem - and if so, what can we do about it?

A lot of discussion lately about the reasons for the decline of Eng Lit A-level.

Are the Gove curriculum & exam reforms to blame?

I don't think so, because the decline of Eng Lit / the humanities more broadly is a global trend.

Word of the Day is a true favourite, as some of you will know.

Apricity (17th century) is the warmth of the sun on a winter’s day.
