AS literature teachers, literature lovers
The idea of this course is to look in detail at the selection of set poems by Ted Hughes in the AS literature syllabus. This course aims at helping teachers develop critical thinking about the author's style and written corpus so that they can approach his poetry with students and lead them successfully to the sitting of the AS literature exam.
