Our English Mastery programme aims to transform Key Stage 3 English education in the UK by improving both the teaching and
learning experience through:
Being a confident and articulate English student involves a large number of complicated skills. We are convinced that the best way to create these sorts of learners is by introducing them systematically to the wonders of grammar, vocabulary and reading for pleasure, alongside the traditional literature teaching that we all know and love.
Our curriculum is therefore divided into strands covering Literary Heritage, Writing Mastery and Reading for Pleasure.
The gold standard of education research, our RCT will robustly assess the efficacy of the programme.
Half of the participating schools will be randomly selected to introduce the English Mastery approach with their Year 7 and 8 students from September 2023. They will also receive our integrated programme of professional development to build teachers' confidence and subject expertise.
The other half of schools play a vital role as a control group. They will continue to teach KS3 English without the programme and will share crucial data with the independent researchers.
This approach allows the team of independent researchers from Sheffield Hallam University to truly assess the effect on outcomes delivered by English Mastery.
We'll send you more information about the research trial and be in touch to arrange a time to speak with you.
