    See the new poets are available for the next five years, but when do they announce the single and comparative texts? I'm presuming the Shakespeare will either be Lear or Othello?

    Usually between now and Easter. The Shakespearean text will most likely be King Lear -as far as I can remember Othello has only been on this 'new' course (12 yrs old now) once. Since they started repeating them a few years ago with Hamlet being on again in 2011 and 2012 and then the same with Macbeth its harder to see a pattern but I'm sort of expecting it to be King Lear for 2015 and 2016.

    Single text for 2015 is Othello, book reps were in school yesterday giving details to the English teachers about copies of the play and notes. Nothing was mentioned about King Lear though.

    Funny, I would have said it was more likely to be King Lear too, as Othello was put on the 2014 comparative list (last examined as single text in 2008). Guess we'll see whenever the list is published though.
