CLASSIC OR MODERN? by PAUL IMISON
from Widnjs, Cheshire
Paul questions GCSE examiners and
makes a stand for popular literature..
"Why is it that the National
Curriculum insists we study only
classical works of literature in
English at school?
As part of the GCSE course, pupils
must study one novel, one play and a
selection of poems - all classics.
Shakespeare, Dickens & Co were greats,
but this is thj 1990s. What about some
of the superb writers around today?"
