Corpus resources for A-level English Language and English Language Teaching

This webpage provides ideas and activities aimed at teaching spoken British English to A-level or GCSE-level English Language students. It includes fully-developed lesson plans as well as suggestions for additional activities that can complement the existing class materials. These materials make use of the BNClab, an online platform created by Lancaster University.

The BNClab employs 10 million words from two extensive corpora, namely the British National Corpus and the British National Corpus 2014, to aid students in exploring topics aligned with the national curriculum. These topics include the impact of gender, age, and region on spoken communication, as well as the language changes that have occurred in English over the past three decades.
