Emailing the Exam Board (AQA)

This week, I decided to email AQA in order to explore literature in the education system, and why certain texts were chosen to study within schools, asking why they decided to take out the 'Poems from Other Cultures' topic out of the curriculum and the focus they have on Western literature.



AQA responded with ideas on how they create specifications for English Literature, along with the details on what is studied currently, however did not address the main point of why it was taken off of the curriculum.



I plan to further investigate this to ensure that I have a fair and balanced argument when writing my final dissertation within my EPQ.
