English and Its Teachers (eBook, ePUB)

A History of Policy, Pedagogy and Practice

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

English and its Teachers offers a historical overview of the development of secondary English teaching in schools over the past fifty years. Initially charting the rise of a new progressive approach in the 1960s, the book then considers the implications for the subject and its teachers of three decades of central policy intervention. Throughout, document and interview data are combined to construct a narrative that details the fascinating and, at times, turbulent history.
