Big changes to the English Syllabus - jury is still out!

The English curriculum is undergoing a massive change, back to pre-2000 days moving away from feminism, nihilism and post-modernism to a close study of original texts, grammar and language.

Whilst many English teachers love this more theoretical content (and opposition from the English Teachers' Association if likely), BOSTES has taken the position that it is not the best thing for the students.

The modules on belonging and journeys have been scrapped, which will be well supported by the student population who were broadly negative in attitude towards these units.
