We were delighted to welcome English leads from Multi Academy Trusts across the country last month to discuss the future of GCSE English.
The session was packed full of insightful conversations around the challenges and opportunities facing GCSE English in the months and years ahead.
While every trust's context is different, there was remarkable consensus around both the pressures facing English and the opportunities for change.
What happens when a teenager finishes a great book? If they’re lucky, they find another. But for too many, that’s where the story ends. They hit a wall. In fact, when we surveyed more than 1,000 students aged 13–16* about their reading habits, "I can’t find a book I like" was one of the biggest barriers to reading.
It’s not a capability issue. Students are confident readers (scoring themselves an average of 3.5 out of 5). It’s a connection issue.
Earlier this year, we launched This is Lit, a new book club designed to celebrate the best of 21st-century literature during The National Year of Reading 2026. Alongside the launch, we explored what makes today's teenagers tick when it comes to books. What we found provides a different perspective on how we think about student disengagement.
Schools across the country are helping students think critically, connect ideas and apply what they know. In an AI-driven world, these skills matter more than ever. With this in mind, AI Awareness Day gives schools a way to build AI literacy: “to know AI, question it, and use it wisely”.
