We use OCR’s courses for Latin and Greek, and Classical Civilisation. An A-level in Classical Greek complements Latin A-level perfectly as a preparation for a degree in Classics, but can be studied in its own right. The format and appeal of the course is as for Latin, with recent authors studied being Homer (The Odyssey), Sophocles (Antigone), Herodotus, Xenophon and Plato (The Apology). The linguistic side of the course is particularly challenging, but similarly very rewarding for the right kind of candidate. It is essential to have studied GCSE Greek as a preparation for the course. Unsurprisingly, the A-level offers a real academic cachet.
