Classical Greek

Course summary

A typical Greek A Level set is between one and two students and you will receive a huge amount of individual attention during the course. We have two full-time teachers of Greek A Level whose passions range from the epic poetry of Homer to the philosophical and legal works of Plato to the great historians and story-tellers, Herodotus and Thucydides. Students are expected to aim high, work hard and reap the rewards. We have a generously stocked department library and would love to see you borrow books and come and discuss them with us. You will also attend Monmouth Group Set Text days and may well be offered the opportunity to visit Italy, Sicily or Greece during your time in the Sixth Form. What will I study during the course? We follow the OCR A Level and students will study unseen translation, unseen comprehension or prose composition and literature.
