Classical Civilisation

Entry Requirements

There are no specific entry requirements for the A Level Classical Civilisation course. You do not need to have studied Classical Civilisation at GCSE, and all texts studied are in English. The course does involve a significant number of literary sources, to which end an enjoyment of Greek and Roman mythology and a willingness to read and discuss literature are necessary for this course. Students will examine sources, both literary and material/visual, and be required to be critical about them. As such, we would advise that any student wishing to take this course should have achieved at least a grade 7 in English Literature and History should they have studied the latter.
