Testing English

Bethan Marshall is Senior Lecturer at King's College London, UK, where she is Director of MA English and Education and MA Creative Arts in the Classroom.

'If English teachers read only one educational text this year, this should be it. Bethan Marshall not only gives a fascinating analysis of the almost incomprehensible world of policy development in English but provides a powerful evidence base to inform future policy and practice. This is a book entirely in the 'spirit of AfL', relective, analytical and immensely practical.' Louise Hayward, Professor of Educational Studies, University of Glasgow, UK
