Course summary

Year 12 and Year 13 — our aims are as in Years 10 and Years 11 but with a greater focus on the criteria for success in the AS Level examinations and beyond. We currently teach the OCR A Level course in English Literature. This course comprises three components: Paper 1: Drama and Poetry Pre-1900; Paper 2: Comparative and Contextual Study; and an internally assessed unit: Component 3: Literature Post-1900. Pupils study a wide range of canonical and contemporary literary texts and over the two year course they will engage in detailed study of the following group of texts: William Shakespeare’s Measure for Measure, John Webster’s The Duchess of Malfi, and John Milton’s Paradise Lost, Books 9 & 10; Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility and Virginia Woolf’s Mrs Dalloway; and Wilfred Owen’s War Poems, Pat Barker’s Regeneration and Owen Sheers’s Pink Mist.
