@BarbaraBleiman Perhaps not widely used but we have studied 'Arcadia', 'Hamnet' and 'How to Be Both' for NEA and it would be great to have something on these. And yes, anything on Woolf would be very welcome!

The Post-16 subject choices you make are really important.

E.g. To apply for #Medicine here at Christ's College, Cambridge, you need CHEMISTRY and TWO other subjects out of BIOLOGY, MATHS and PHYSICS at A level or equivalent.

#internationalwomensday Book 4. Finding women to read in the GCSE specs gets a little tricky - only 8 of the choice of 26 texts are written by women. But Dr Evans’ class are enjoying this as their 19th Century text. https://t.co/lZrGtkO41C

Agrippina was so powerful that her son, Nero, tried to kill her several times. He also failed several times, partly because so many would-be-assassins were too afraid of her.

@timothycbaker Taught Barbara Trapido, Anita Desai, Alexandra Fuller, Helen Dunmore Muriel Spark and others when there was coursework . . .

@timothycbaker The other statistic that will be of interest is that out of all this choice the vast majority of pupils will be taught the same texts. The length, budget & choosing a text with lots of prepared resources will also influence this.
