Aprašymas
This book opens with a provocation: Why haven't they passed yet? Instead of offering quick fixes or exam tactics, it invites teachers to look beyond grades and accountability to the deeper barriers learners face in developing literacy. Written by experienced Further Education and Skills (FES) English teachers, it draws on years of classroom practice with learners who are disengaged, demotivated, or resitting qualifications. Rather than " teaching to the test", it explores the complex factors shaping progress-- from confidence and identity to prior experiences and systemic pressures-- keeping the learner at the centre. Each chapter blends personal insight, theory and practical strategies, with clear explanations and actionable takeaways for immediate use. Inclusivity is woven throughout, recognizing that factors such as SEND and mental health are integral to everyday teaching. Both reflective and practical, the book supports teachers in re-engaging learners and fostering meaningful progress-- reminding us that the true purpose of English is to empower learners to think, communicate and navigate the world with confidence.
