initial findings from the first part of her PhD, which uses corpus linguistics to study GCSE exam texts.\u00a0 The English teachers in the audience were keen to hear about which genres of reading provide the best exposure to the types of vocabulary found in the exam texts.\u00a0 There was a great discussion at the end, during the questions, about vocabulary that students find particularly challenging and ways in which practitioners can promote reading in our classrooms.\u00a0 Beverley was also able to attract a new participant school to her study, drawn from a member of the audience.\u00a0 There was a lot of interest in her PhD journey, with several teachers keen to find out how they too can get involved in research.<\/p>\n<p><a
