      This essential book will help English teachers to address the challenges and opportunities in creating a powerful, knowledge-rich, concept-led curriculum, which draws on lived experience and engages with cognitive science and other educational research. It explores persistent problems in the teaching of English, why we have struggled to address them and how we can go about creating a curriculum which enables all pupils to achieve.

      Written by experienced English teachers and teacher educators, the book empowers teachers to reclaim their subject as one which has the power to change lives, and to deliver it with passion and authenticity. The Trouble with English and How to Address It contains:

      • A detailed exploration of the challenges English teachers face in designing and delivering a rigorous, coherent, sequenced curriculum
      • An overview of the implications of cognitive science research for the teaching of English
      • Approaches to building a powerful, knowledge-rich curriculum which encompasses concepts, contexts and content in English
      • Suggestions for how to use curriculum design and implementation as a training opportunity in departments
      • Practical strategies for English teachers which provide the link between cognitive science research and their classroom practice

      To equip leaders and classroom teachers with everything they might need to improve their provision, this book provides a forensic account of what to change, why and how, moving from the big picture into fine details about what we might see in a highly successful English classroom.
