Scottish texts are a key part of National 5 and Higher English courses.
SQA is gathering views on the current Scottish set text list for National 5 and Higher English. We want to update the list so that it more fully reflects life in Scotland.
What am I being asked to do?
The survey should take around 4 minutes to complete. It asks you questions about which texts you’d like us to keep, which you’d like us to replace, and what types of texts you like to read and study.
The survey closes on Monday 6 May 2024.
How will you use my feedback?
We’ll review and consider the feedback from this survey, along with the views of teachers and lecturers, which we’re gathering through other surveys and consultations. This will help us to decide the content of the updated list.
When will you publish the revised list?
We’ll publish the revised Scottish set text list by the end of 2024, with a view to implementing it in session 2025-26. This means the 2026 exams will be the first to contain content from the revised list.
