Member Testimonials
Megan Atherton
The website is a lifesaver. The profession is under a lot of pressure and Litdrive helps relieve it in so many ways. I have shared some resources to payback those I turn to time and time again and hope to share even more as thanks one day. Long live Litdrive.
Dianne Fountain
LitDrive resources have saved me hours and hours of planning time. They are always of high quality, having been planned by teachers, and I’m convinced that my teaching has improved as result of the superb T&L ideas that I have acquired. Thank you so much to everyone whose ideas I have used, adapted and delivered.
Rachel
Allowed me the freedom to develop resources in my department from an original starting point, and show copious examples of well made SOL. It has also developed my CPD during maternity leave and allowed me to still feel part of the wider teaching community still.
Brian Robinson

All resources are of a really high quality. The generosity of the LitDrive community is outstanding, being a part of such a collaborative effort is incredible – they have saved me hours of planning and work; the best thing for my well-being!

The resources and ideas I’ve been exposed to via Litdrive have improved my practice (more than any courses I’ve attended) and have been an invaluable and practical source of CPD. It’s saved me hours and hours of time.

Fantastic! Saved me hours and hours of time. So grateful to have this; my science teacher husband is very jealous. Lovely, lovely English teachers!

Donna Jones
I was introduced to Litdrive by an ex-colleague during a CPD session, I was really surprised how fabulous it was for such a small cost. It has enabled me to connect with a phenomenal range of resources, practitioners and training opportunities. In turn, it has improved my knowledge and teaching. I always signpost others too.
Marion
In an ever increasing profession that expects more and more from staff I don’t know what I would have done without Litdrive this year. The resources are awesome and CPD in itself with the amazing ideas and activities attached to the resources. Litdrive has saved me hours of time and helped me keep my sanity. Thank you!
Emma
I love Litdrive. It offers a range of high quality resources that have helped support my teaching- particularly for A Level. The CPD offered is excellent and I often come away with new perspectives on the texts I teach. I love the ‘community feel’ of the site.
Nicola
I have used LitDrive to source resources and ideas for schemes of learning – as well as for inspiration for different ways of teaching, for different revision strategies. It’s brilliant that everything is adaptable for my school, my classes and our exam board.
Carmen Friend
I couldn’t have got through my trainee and NQT years without you. People are so generous giving their valuable resources. I can’t wait to design something worthy to upload. Thank you.
Rachel Twort
I’ve greatly benefited from Litdrive as it has allowed me as an NQT to learn from others, and try activities and approaches that are less commonly advocated for or utilised in my current school. It has allowed me to develop my own approaches and introduce new ones into my teaching and the department’s schemes. It had been massively useful for KS3 when hunting for extracts and short stories.
Amy Bradley
I just want to say a huge thank you to everyone who has contributed to Litdrive. It baffled me when starting my teaching career, in 2017, why there was so little collaboration between teachers – many of whom would spend hours creating very similar resources. Litdrive, and its contributors, have restored my faith! As a collaborative, national team you really are helping us all to save hours and hours of our time. Thank you for your generosity.
Faith Kamwetu
Litdrive has helped me learn and adapt my teaching style through regular CPDs offered on the site, as well as learning new techniques from SOWs shared by wonderful teachers! Litdrive has been a hub of best practice and subject knowledge. It has been a tacit support that has led to more effective teaching in my classroom.
Shannon Kooner
The site is so helpful! The minor glitches here and there have been sorted and the site is working well!- I attended a CPD event a while ago too and the subject knowledge I attained was so invaluable. Can’t wait until the next!
Caroline
Just awesome, has saved me countless hours of work and givenme loads of new ideas too!
Helena Terry
As an RQT, LitDrive has saved me countless amounts of hours and mental breakdowns. The people that share on LitDrive are incredibly generous and I am always finding new and exciting ways for my lessons to come alive. LitDrive is such a lovely community, with so many people willing to help others and share their expertise.
Kate Bythell
This site has been such a help when I have been in a last minute panic or even just helping me come up with ideas for how to approach a particular text or topic. I love the feeling of community and I will try to add more of my own resources to give back.
