Newspapers can be a terrific resource for schools. Now there is an online archive created specially for 11 to 19-year-olds. National newspapers such as The Guardian and The Scotsman and regionals such as the Liverpool Echo and the Birmingham Evening Mail have been brought together with a curriculum focus in Proquest Learning: News - from Proquest Learning (formerly Chadwyck-Healey). As it’s a pay-service be sure to check it out carefully. Costs listed on the site for ProQuest Learning: News are - single-user, pound;350; 16-users pound;450; site access pound;550 (prices for two other services, literature and history, are slightly less). A form is available on the site to set up a two-week free trial.
