English Literature

Course summary

English Literature will ask much of you but give much in return. The course will encourage you to doubt your certainties, recognise your prejudices and walk in another’s shoes. It is a journey that will challenge your perceptions of yourself and others. English Literature in the Sixth Form consists of reading, reflection, analysis and discussion. You will build on the skills, knowledge and understanding acquired at GCSE. The course offers a programme of study that will be rewarding and enjoyable in its own right and which forms a basis for further study at degree level.
