If you enjoyed English Language at GCSE, this course will allow you to develop your interests in both language and literature as interconnecting subjects. Added to this will be the study of spoken language; the language of the media, how speech is represented in literature, and, most fascinating of all, the analysis of everyday conversation. English Language and Literature make an ideal companion subject to any other specification, most obviously the Humanities, Languages, and Psychology. A qualification in the subject will always be highly regarded by universities, colleges, and employers alike - truly a lifelong asset.
We ask that students entering the Sixth Form have a minimum of 7 GCSEs or equivalent qualifications with 5 GCSEs at Grade 4 plus 2 at Grade 5 or above. To begin English Language and Literature, you must have achieved at least a G6 in both English Language and English Literature at GCSE.
