Latin
Wells Cathedral School - Somerset

Course summary

The study of Latin is far more than simply Grammar and Vocabulary but will underpin your knowledge of these in both English and other modern foreign languages. In addition you will cover elements of Classical Civilisations and discover our lingering modern links to the past. The literature part of the course enables you to get inside the Roman psyche as well as form your own opinion.

Entry requirements

The A level course in Latin builds primarily on the knowledge, understanding and skills specified for the GCSE Latin course, and it is expected that, at present, only pupils who have taken GCSE Latin will wish to continue their studies in the Sixth Form.
