An excellent example of how you can comment on the performance of An Inspector Calls in a Lit essay: mrhansonsenglish.wordpress.c…
It's based on the Stephen Daldry adaptation but you can apply the points on distance and inside vs outside to our performance at SP.

Well done to our AS and A Level students who attended the Gatsby and prose lectures in Birmingham today! They listened attentively to the academics and have gotten one step closer to successful exam results in the summer through debate and analysis! Congrats old sports!

Good luck to our Year 11 students who are starting their next round of mocks tomorrow. Remember - break everything down - WHAT is the exam question asking you to do? HOW are you going to answer it whereby you fulfil the requirements of the question? #AimHigher

An excellent short clip about stage craft and polysemic interpretations in Macbeth. Perfect for those higher grades:

Terrified that 'Tissue' will come up on the mock exams - or the REAL exam? Absolutely no need!! Listen to the poet Imtiaz Dharker discuss what her poem means and give a reading of the poem in this short clip: youtube.com/watch?v=a_zmCWgb…

Psst! Year 11s!! Aiming for a Grade 5 or higher? Want additional help with modern/postmodern poetry? Get your head around Kamikaze by listening to this documentary that interviews those who didn't end up flying. The BBC's The Last Kamikazes

SHOW THIS TO YOUR CHILDREN!
- Seek failure
- Failure is where ALL the lessons are
- Successful people fail a LOT
- Live where you're almost certain you're going to fail
- Practice is controlled failure
- Failure helps you evolve
- Fail early, often, forward
