Translation of the Latin language is an exercise which develops valuable skills of focus and precision while providing a key to some of the most intriguing and influential texts of the Ancient (or any other) World. Close reading of these texts fosters important and transferable analytical skills and is, moreover, enormous fun for those with an enquiring mind and a taste for a puzzle. The enduring appeal of Latin as a subject owes much to this but also, just as importantly, to the cultural perspective and independence of mind, which it has always encouraged in its students.
While Latin has a natural affinity with other arts subjects, particularly History, English and modern languages, the analytical nature of the discipline makes it an ideal companion for subjects such as Mathematics, Economics, Music and the sciences. Candidates should have obtained at least a grade 6 at GCSE.
