In studying Classics we ask many questions both about the past and about ourselves. Western culture's foundation can be found in the ideas of the Greeks and Romans. Questions that they asked about life and how to live it are questions we still ask today. We cover a range of areas for discussion including politics, war and government, ethics and how we treat each other. Classics is more than just one subject; Classics is about life: art, language, politics, myth, drama, architecture, law, science, religion, archaeology, philosophy, and history. Programme of study - Year 12 Programme of study - Year 13 Classics is an academic A level which is respected by universities and employers. Studying Classics will develop skills of logical analysis, critical appreciation and effective communication. You will need to acquire tolerance and mental flexibility as your beliefs and ideas are challenged by those of societies which were sometimes shockingly different from your own. We explore Greece and Rome over a vast sweep of time from the Bronze Age to the 1st Century AD. In studying their literature, art, religion, philosophy and politics we begin to appreciate the profound influence that the ancient cultures still have on our present life.
