Calling A-level English teachers! Do you teach Austen, Brontë, or other 18thc stuff? Could you use a set of free research-informed teaching materials, which support students' historical, literary, & linguistic understanding, & foster debate about misogyny, consent, & healthy relationships? (1/?)
Screenshot of a website with text that reads as follows, and an image of a manuscript letter:

Teaching and learning materials
We have produced a set of resources for A-level English teachers. They focus on an extraordinary sequence of letters written between Mary Hamilton - then a governess to the daughters of George III and Queen Charlotte - and the young Prince of Wales, the future George IV.

Using the supporting resources, these letters can be studied as a powerful narrative with modern-day #MeToo echoes, as contextualising support for Jane Austen and Charlotte Bronte;'s novels, or as examples of eighteenth-century English.

To access the free resources, please register below (you will only be asked to provide your name, school and email address). You will then be directed to a download page.
