ABSTRACT This essay explores some of the problems that emerge from the imposition of a very narrow conception of the English literary heritage on pupils across England. It considers the role of government and school policy – and of teachers and pupils – in mediating set texts, and the ways in which problematic aspects of these texts are questioned and resisted in the classroom.
