If you are interested in the myths, literature, history and culture of the ancient world, then Classical Civilisation A Level is for you. No prior knowledge is required, although you will need a proven record in English or History. You will study Greek and Roman Civilisations using a range of primary sources, including literature and visual and material culture. The course includes a variety of interesting and complementary topics and is a highly considered A Level option, which enriches any combination of subjects, and helps build much valued critical and evaluative skills. The Department makes excellent use of resources to be found in the Ashmolean Museum, and invites internationally renowned experts to present at the twice-termly meetings of the Lyne Society.
Sixth Form candidates are expected to achieve strong GCSE grades across the board. As a minimum, pupils should gain a 7 or above at GCSE in the subjects (or relevant subjects) they hope to study at A Level or at Higher Level within the IB. Particularly at A Level, that requirement moves up to an 8 for either Maths or any of the three traditional Sciences.
