Does someone have a list of the questions/poems that have been previously used for GCSE English Literature: Edexcel? I know someone has compiled this somewhere but I can't find it! @Team_English1 @LitdriveUK

Tried something new. Recorded myself making a plot summary of AIC using a zine format courtesy of @austinkleon's helpful YouTube vid. My kids loved it, feel free to share and use for a quick and easy revision/homeowrk activity. @LitdriveUK @FunkyPedagogy youtu.be/HeW2kJ4jtXs

Marcus Rashford has written a powerful column for The Times: calling on MPs to U-turn, and reinstate free food vouchers for kids who will just not eat this summer without them. He sounds more statesmanlike than our statesmen: thetimes.co.uk/article/endin…

In his latest blog, @Xris32 shared an idea for regular review and consolidation of SPaG to improve Ss’ written accuracy and finished by asking ‘What if every teacher made one and shared it?’ #teamenglish get your creative freak on! dropbox.com/s/zuic4vdx8znp8b…

*NEW* for Macbeth: revise characters, motifs, themes and contexts with this ‘brain dump’ revision clock. Use it in real time in an hour long lesson. Help yourself if it might be useful 👍 @Team_English1 dropbox.com/s/pe3g6jolqktl0v…
