Whilst no longer a spoken language, Latin is a valuable subject for the skills it instils in our students. The onus is on both the language and culture of the Romans as well as some study of the Ancient Greek civilisation. Students will be taught to understand the place of Latin as the basis of many European languages including English, and develop an appreciation of the way in which Classical culture has influenced every aspect of modern life.
Entry to the Sixth Form is dependent on GCSE or equivalent qualifications, and a reference from the candidate’s current school. Students require 6 GCSE subjects at grade 6 or higher, with at least a grade 6 in each of your chosen A Level subjects. For some subjects a grade 7 at GCSE is required.
1. Latin Language (50%) 2. Latin Verse Literature (25%) 3. Literature and Culture (Civilisation) (25%)
