This course offers students an opportunity to undertake some close study of literary texts whilst at the same time having opportunities to respond creatively to their reading through producing texts of their own of various kinds inspired by what they have read. Students also have opportunities to explore non-fictional writing and to study film and other media in their work.
The minimum academic requirement for Sixth Form is six GCSEs at grades 9-5, including at least three grade 6s or equivalent. Students are normally expected to have at least a grade 6 in the subject to be studied to A-level, although specific requirements apply for some subjects.
The A-level will be assessed in the following ways: • You will complete a 3 hour written paper offering responses to the novel you have analysed, the poet you have studied and the anthology of writing about place. • You will complete a 2 hour 30 minute written paper giving a response to the play you have studied and a creative response to the novel you have studied for this purpose. • Your personal investigation of connections between literary and non-literary texts will be assessed through a coursework study of 2,500 – 3,000 words.
