Course summary

Literature deals with the big human issues, and provides insight into how these have affected individuals over the centuries. It requires reading at the highest level, with empathy, intuition and inference. You will learn to write well about literature; this means maintaining organisation and clarity, while dealing with issues that are complex and never black and white. If you can write well about poetry you can write well about anything!

Entry requirements

How you'll be assessed

There are three terminal exams in the summer of Year 13 (80%); there is one coursework essay (20%)
