IB English Language and Literature allows pupils to explore the world around them through the lens of both literary and non-literary works. If you have, or would like to have, a wider appreciation of how global issues are explored by writers, the media and journalists you would very much enjoy the study of IB English Language and Literature. You will read texts from around the world, learn about new cultures and issues, both historical and contemporary, which are tackled within the texts and complementary non-literary texts including adverts, posters, sculpture, lyrics and articles. This is a subject that rewards pupils with inquisitive minds and encourages independent thought. There are numerous opportunities to have a strong personal engagement with the texts and issues being studied which will suit pupils with a creative or interesting perspective on the world.
The following are required for entry into the Sixth Form: • A Headmaster’s or Headmistress’ reference from the pupil’s current school • Attainment of a satisfactory standard at the Assessment Day and Scholarship Examinations or Exhibition assessments, where appropriate • Six (I)GCSE passes at Grade B (6) or above, with a minimum of Grade C (5) in English Language and Mathematics
