About Litdrive
Litdrive is a registered charity and teacher-led subject association for English teachers. We provide subject-specific professional development, a shared resource bank, and a national professional community. We believe that subject-specific professional development should be a funded entitlement for every English teacher.
Litdrive was founded in 2017 as a grassroots, teacher-led organisation. Over nine years, it has grown into one of the UK’s leading associate subject associations for English teachers, with over 20,000 engaged English teachers and more than one million curriculum resources downloaded in the past three years alone.
We remain committed to placing teacher voice at the heart of professional development. We do this through:
ACCESS: a quality-assured resource bank of curriculum materials, uploaded and shared by English teachers.
DEVELOPMENT: subject-specific CPD delivered nationally, regionally, and online, alongside a mentoring programme.
COMMUNITY AND VOICE: a national network of English teachers with a collective voice in sector debate and policy.
Our strategy 2027-2032
We are just reaching the end of our 2026 strategy and are working with members to co-construct our strategy for the future. 2027 will celebrate ten years of Litdrive, and we are proud of what we have achieved so far, but we continue to remain committed to supporting Engish teachers and leaders for the changes ahead.
2027 will bring the implementation of significant national reform, and we aim to work alogside a number of collaborators and partners to provide high quality professional development to members on key topics, including:
Subject leadership across primary and secondary phases, curriculum, assessment, oracy, reading, subject specific pedagogy and more.
Schools and trusts can purchase group membership for their English departments here. If you are a school or Trust and keen to support our work, get in touch.
We engage with our members with an annual member survey, and we use member voice to provide us with valuable feedback that will help us to continue to ensure that our work is helpful and relevant to teachers. Please get in touch if you are a teacher and interested in supporting our work.
