Course summary

In the new English Language specification, we will teach you how to analyse texts, both spoken and written. These will range from texts you come across every day to literature and texts from the past. The skills taught in this A level build on those taught at GCSE English, developing creative and critical approaches. Successful English Language students are curious, independent and enjoy contributing to discussion.
