This assumes an abstract objectivist view of language that sees the ‘English’ as removable for testing in any context. However, in an individual subjectivist view of language, ‘English’ is inextricably linked with context, i.e. subject content that symbiotically connects thought and meaning. In this paper, we outline these views of language and consider the ‘English’ of IELTS. Next we detail interviews and focus groups we conducted with lecturers in subject areas of Design, Nursing, Engineering, Business, Computing, and Psychology. These researched the ‘English’ required in subjects and the thinking underpinning it. We then present and discuss results around three themes of ‘How ‘English’ is specific to the content of subjects’; ‘How the ‘English’ of subjects is underpinned by unique ideological and psychological elements’ and; ‘How the non-textual elements of different subjects are intertwined with their ‘English’’. Our results illustrate why we need to challenge the power invested in IELTS, and why determining English preparedness needs to be undertaken within the subject context.
