“All Of Us is a thoughtful and timely anthology that will enrich my teaching of unseen texts in the KS5 classroom. There is a really exciting range of voices represented in this anthology and the rich range of diverse texts will challenge and engage students, both linguistically and thematically. It is fantastic to see such a variety of genres and text types included, which will enable teachers of both Language and Literature courses to support students with analysing unseen texts, whether it is approaching the unseen poetry question in the Literature exam or unpacking how meanings and representations are created in non-fiction texts for the A Level Language exam. The detailed notes on contexts and writer's choices, will give teachers and students the confidence to analyse these texts in a developed way. I think the 'Explore Further' sections, with ideas about connecting texts will be really useful for both me, as a teacher, but also to help guide my students with ideas for their NEAs. This anthology can be used flexibly across different specifications and courses to enrich students' skills in analysis alongside their cultural capital. I particularly liked the overview table, which will help me to plan my teaching and choose the most suitable texts to fit in to our curriculum. This is a fantastic resource, which will enhance our teaching of unseen texts in the classroom.” Naomi Hursthouse, Assistant Headteacher, Steyning Grammar School, West Sussex
