Aims
- To provide illustrated readings and investigations of poems specified in the NEAB GCSE syllabus.
- To describe some of the contexts and origins of the poems.
- To introduce the poets and their work to the GCSE age group.
The programmes were produced in association with the NEAB.
The five programmes in the Passwords series are linked with the corresponding sections in the NEAB Anthology. The first three programmes focus on individual poets: Simon Armitage, Carol Ann Duffy and Ted Hughes. Although the Anthology contains five poems for each poet, in the programmes we only have time for a full investigation of four. The final two programmes, Hearts and Partners and When the Going Gets Tough, each feature five poems, whereas the corresponding sections in the Anthology contain six or seven. The omissions are due to time constraints.
