Content

  • It is essential that Blocks 1 to 6 and the first lesson of Block 8 are completed prior to starting this course. This is Block 9 for IGCSE English Language with Pearson Edexcel, Specification A. The whole course will run over two years, with each block following on from the previous one, giving students who feel ready the opportunity to enter for the exam in June 2025 or November 2025. In the first six Blocks, we learned about the structure of Paper 1 and the different types of questions.

  • Block 7 and 8 are recordings. Block 7 covers transactional writing and creative writing, looking at the different question types and how to approach them. Block 8 is a set of five recordings from the Poetry blocks, covering the first five poems/texts for Paper 2. Block 7 can be done when convenient, but Block 8 needs to be started prior to Block 9 (at least the first lesson). We will be looking at detail, language, structure and writers’ perspectives and contexts. We will look at characters and settings where appropriate. We will learn what is required by the examination assessment objectives. Please note that if you are new to this course and wish to catch up and take the exam in 2025, it is essential that you purchase and watch the recordings of Blocks 1 to 8, available in the Products section of the website.

“We have been taking part in the BSL lessons and the other day had great fun finger spelling while shopping. Two of my children have dyslexia with T being more severe, he hates and refuses spellings. Along comes BSL and he’s loving spellings!” ”

Holly, Parent

“Our family are full time travellers and the hub is a life line for us. The children get to see and speak to adults who show a real interest in their learning and their lives. They get to pick lessons that they are interested in and have fun learning something new. The social hub was a real life line for us too. My 3 have made friends and love getting to chat to children and adults daily too. ”

Donna, Parent

“I can’t thank you enough for starting this group Amy. You gave me back my happy (not so little anymore) boy. Thanks to this group he’s realised he’s not the stupid, naughty kid that school made him believe he was. His sister is on school holidays and he’s doing recorded lessons by choice. Xxxx ”
