There are lots of opportunities to extend your love of Literature beyond the classroom. You will be invited to become part of our Theatre group, attending plays and performances up and down the country. You will also have the chance to develop your exam technique with the support from leading figures in the field, by going on a University revision day. As well as leading to degree courses in English Literature, it is well regarded by Universities and employers as a general qualification, suitable for all higher education courses or careers. The skills that you will develop in high-order reading, written accuracy and fluency, confidence in group work and discussions, textual analysis, research, and ICT will be enormously useful in life. As a facilitating subject, many universities regard English Literature as a desirable A-Level for a wide range of courses.
Five standard passes at GCSE (9-4) in five different subjects (only one BTEC will be considered), with at least one being GCSE English or GCSE Maths. A minimum of grade 5 in GCSE English and English Literature.
Paper 1: Love through the Ages - written assessment (40% of the A Level). Paper 2: Text in Shared Contexts - written assessment (40% of the A Level). Independent Critical Study: Texts across Time (20% of the A Level).
