OXFORD, England, March 23, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- A recent article published earlier this month, presented a case for change in the way grammar is taught in England. Based on research funded by the Nuffield Foundation, the article described how a new approach to teaching grammar and writing known as Englicious, required the pupils involved to learn grammatical terms, after which they applied this new knowledge to a piece of writing. Ten Englicious lessons were delivered by teachers guided by a manual, closely tailored to the linguistic content of the National Curriculum. Crucially, the main outcome of the research revealed that this intervention failed to improve narrative writing in pupils aged six to seven.

Key Points: 
  • Ten Englicious lessons were delivered by teachers guided by a manual, closely tailored to the linguistic content of the National Curriculum.
  • Says Caller: "I have misgivings about the current emphasis on the methodical teaching of grammar in schools.
  • So how does Caller suggest that writing can be improved if teaching pupils the rules of grammar has been shown to be ineffective?
  • Founded in 1999 by Adam Caller, Tutors International is a private company based in Oxford, a city renowned for academic excellence.
