by Steve Campsall During the launch phase, while resources at English.Edusites.co.uk are building up, a subscription to the site will be available for an annual subscription price of just £30.00 for a single teacher. However, we are running a promotion during November which means, if you use the coupon below, you will be able to sign up for a free year’s access. Link to Sign-up Form: http://edusites.co.uk/amember/signup.php?price_group=1 Coupon: B113AA08D8  Launched in September, English.edusites.co.uk offers English teachers a unique, useful and increasingly large collection of teaching guides and schemes of work for A Level English Language, A Level English Literature and the combined A Level English Language & Literature courses. There is also an increasing range of guides and schemes of work covering various aspects of GCSE English and GCSE English Literature. The site is proving increasingly popular among English teachers because it offers something a little different from what is available either in course textbooks or elsewhere on the Internet. Each guide has been prepared by experienced teachers and has been written to offer a truly useful approach to teaching a particular unit of work. English.edusites.co.uk is committed eventually to producing a wide range of guides that will cover all of the major exam board requirements for A Level and GCSE, as well, in due course, for KS3. The guides offered are mainly of two types. Some provide the busy teacher with an off-the-shelf series of lessons that will allow for an interesting and useful learning experience; others provide a rather different way of approaching a particular unit, one that will give students a high chance of creating subtle rather than mundane responses and thus enable them more easily to achieve the higher grade bands. Our aim is always to provide you, the hard-pressed and busy English specialist, with useful material that will make your teaching day less arduous, more interesting and very satisfying. We always welcome your comments and requests so please do send them in. We guarantee to listen and respond. If you have a scheme of work that other teachers can benefit from, then we’d love to hear from you! We pay attractive rates and especially welcome material that will help teachers who are new to a particular exam board or unit. Coming SoonA guide on the Gothic for AQA B English Literature, LITB3 “Texts and Genres” but which would also be useful for WJEC A2 Unit LT3, “Period and Genre Study”, OCR A2 Unit F664 “Texts in Time”, and possibly Edexcel, Unit 4 ‘Reflections in Literary Studies’.
