Very pleased to have an article alongside James Carter in this issue of English 4-11 magazine, about raising the profile of Poetry For Pleasure in the classroom. Let's Do Poetry! #UkEduSky
My copy of English 4-11 arrived yesterday (which I get as part of the www.ukla.org membership). There are super articles about poetry, debating and reading. You can also find book reviews from myself, teachers, authors, SLT and lecturers too.
