Any student who enjoyed and was successful at Latin and/or Greek GCSE will like the rigour and extension of Latin/Classical Greek A Levels. They offer the chance to become proficient in the language and to read more of the original texts, showing an appreciation of them within their literary, social and historical context. Vocabulary revision is centred around what is met in the other sections of the syllabus. We revise all main Latin constructions as well as look at how to write stylish Latin At A Level there is some new grammar but for the most part, it is extending knowledge of grammar already learned in the GCSE course. We use the John Taylor Latin Beyond GCSE textbook.
As a minimum, students must achieve at least grade 7 (equivalent to A grade) in four separate subjects. In addition, all students must achieve a minimum grade of 6 (equivalent to a high B grade) in Mathematics and English GCSE or IGCSE. Please also note that a minimum of grade 7 is required in those subjects, or closely related subjects, that students wish to study for A Level with the exception of Mathematics where students will require a minimum grade 8 at GCSE and Further Mathematics where students will require a minimum grade 9 at GCSE.
