The A level course also promotes a logical and challenging transition from IGCSE study, developing learners’ critical analysis skills for progression into higher study. There is a good balance between examined units (80%) and coursework (20%) and pupils will gain insights into the traditions of literature in English through a broad range of texts from different periods. Pupils will develop their understanding and key skills using a variety of methods including: close-reading, research, the study of critical essays, group discussions and film adaptations.
Pupils should attain a minimum of a grade 6 in the subjects they wish to study at A level. For some subjects such as Mathematics, Languages and the Sciences however, a grade 7 or above is expected. The minimum entry requirement for the Sixth Form is five GCSE passes.
