Course summary

At A Level, the girls follow the OCR course. They study a range of literature from across the ages, including Shakespeare, Webster and Milton, as well as a coursework unit in twentieth and twenty-first century writers such as Virginia Woolf, Caryl Churchill, Jay Bernard and Chimamanda Ngozie Adichie. They also complete a detailed study of the Gothic genre, which includes a wide range of reading from the late 18th century to the present. In addition to studying the texts themselves, the girls look closely at contextual influences and critical history.
