One purchase covers the school that buys it. Print it, copy it, hand it round your department. Not for passing to other schools or uploading anywhere.
English is two qualifications taught by one department, and they are not the same subject. Language and Literature are examined differently, weighted differently and lost differently — and a scheme of work that treats them as one thing quietly costs marks in both.
This booklet is written for the whole department at once. A head of English can read it as a curriculum and quality-assurance document; a teacher can open it at the page they need on a Monday. All eighteen current specifications were read in full rather than summarised, and where the boards differ — and they differ more than most departments assume — the difference is stated rather than blended away.
