Secondary School Literature

[SpartanMum]

Elitism - such a sad thing and yet so very common in our top schools these days. I deliberately sent my 2 DS to "tier 2" non-independent schools…just in case they got it into their heads that they were somehow elite. 2 X EESIS forfeited.


Not at all saying that everyone in independent/top tier schools are elitist. Just didn’t want to take any chances.
To be honest, am/was seeing some of these folks in the workforce …and getting seriously worried.

Completely off topic but couldn’t resist. Apologies

Love Literature and proud to have done it!

Hi


I always wondered why the publishers do not produce a TYS Model answers for Eng Lit.

Btw, does anyone know of any model answers for Macbeth, Jekyll and Hyde, An Inspector calls. My trawl of the web has been futile.

can i generalize n state that those kids who do well in Lit are those who have a rather good level of english and an even higher level of empathy/ EQ? I mean… they need to read n derive what the author is saying from those words… takes somewhat digesting and regurgitating of emotions within…

My dd2 is not very good in English. But taking Lit has helped to improve it by ALOT. Also, it has triggered an interest in reading.
Dd1 is excellent in EL and Lit but she doesn’t want to do Lit in JC. She says she enjoys books and all, but studyg them just kills her interest. I dunno what she means though.

mine loved reading but after taking Lit and seeing how she is struggling, i almost think she needs tutoring to expand on her views to get more marks
