To the surprise of some non‐classicists, Latin and Greek at A Level and degree level have not only retained their popularity amazingly well, but classical scholarship across the world has never been more vigorous and exciting. From computer analysis to satellite photography, classical scholars have been revolutionising our study of the twin foundations of our European civilisation. At its heart, of course, remains the linguistic knowledge necessary to read Greek and Latin texts in the original, with all the literary and intellectual skills that this develops. The A Level examinations are also adapting to the new ways of studying the languages; for example, prose composition from English into Latin or Greek is now optional. Nevertheless, notwithstanding the minimum grades stated below, A Level Latin and Greek will appeal primarily to those who have gained an A* at WJEC Level 2 Latin or a grade 8 at GCSE Greek and enjoy a rewarding challenge.
WJEC Level 2 Latin A or Greek 7.
