This book offers a pivotal re-evaluation of English teaching one
century on from The Newbolt Report of 1921, responding to this
seminal work and exploring its impact on issues and contemporary
aims of English teaching today. Bringing together a range of
experts in English higher education, the book provides a
twenty-first century inflection on the enduring issues highlighted
by Newbolt’s original report. It examines topics including the
demands of assessment, the narrowing of the literary curriculum,
the impact of education reform, targets related to social mobility,
class and widening participation, as well as broader questions
about the function of literature and the arts in education.
Chapters also consider issues surrounding the promotion of
community cohesion, diversity and how technological advances might
reshape literary education. This unique re-evaluation of the
achievements and findings of the Newbolt Commission will be
essential reading for those researching English education and the
history of education.
