Planning Hamnet for Higher Level? This free scheme of work lays out the full 21-lesson pathway, from the opening chapter to a timed exam answer, so you can see exactly how the novel can be taught across the year before you commit to a single resource.

• The full sequence of 21 lessons and what each one covers
• How the in-class reading is staged, so that no lesson depends on students having read ahead
• How the novel’s braided timeline (the 1596 illness and the 1580s courtship) is handled in class rather than left to confuse
• Where the exam preparation sits, and how the key moments and quotations build toward it
• A shortened route for when time is tight

It is the planning backbone of the Complete Teaching Pack, shared free so you can judge the approach for yourself. The full pack turns every line of this pathway into a ready-to-teach lesson, with slides, student sheets, scaffolds and exam materials.
