English Literature

Course summary

English Literature teaches students to think shrewdly, to interpret and challenge information, to read between the lines, and construct a convincing argument. English students gain confidence and experience in developing their ideas and defending their positions. They know how to see situations from different points of view, and to empathise with many perspectives. Above all, English rewards students with a versatile set of skills that will be useful in any walk of life and valued by any employer. English Literature at Tudor Hall gives students the opportunity to study more texts in greater detail than ever before. Students will encounter a range of poetry, prose and drama (both modern and from the literary canon) and be offered the opportunity to attend theatre trips and join the Sixth Form Book Club.
