ABOUT ENGLISHTEACHING.CO.UK

RELATED LINKS

Since its launch on 21 April 2000, englishteaching.co.uk (aka fretweb) has become one of the UK's premiere online resources for Teachers of English Language and Literature at secondary level.

englishteaching.co.uk provides and publishes editable and printable teaching resources, worksheets, lesson plans and schemes of work.  All materials are developed and produced by practising subject specialists and, as an online resource, englishteaching.co.uk's collection of materials is ever-expanding.

As a busy, practising teacher, Chantel Mathias, (the site's founder and editor), realised the potential of the Internet in creating an online cooperative for busy classroom teachers.  Teaching colleagues throughout the UK similarly realised this potential and the sharing and cooperation was huge.   It is this same sprit of sharing and professionalism that remains central to our subscription-based site and the pioneering £ARN + LEARN scheme today. 

From April 2000 to December 2001, the site was designed, maintained, funded and edited solely by Chantel Mathias but the idea behind FRETWEB steadily came to fruition thanks to the excellent teaching resources, lesson plans and schemes of work submitted for publication by FRETWEB's generous contributors.

As of January 2002, access to FRETWEB's Secure Site was by subscription.  At the same time, FRETWEB's new and exciting £ARN + LEARN scheme was launched. Our ethos of sharing remains central to this scheme: teachers produce and share their resources and talents and we share the site's subscription income in the form of a no nonsense, upfront fee.
