Studying English language can involve exploring almost any use of words. You will have the opportunity to study the ways English language is used in a variety of forms, such as casual spoken conversations and advertising material, texts and tweets, and legal and medical discourse. You will also be able to study language from a range of periods and cultures, engaging with the evolution of the English language from its Anglo-Saxon beginnings onwards, and looking at global Englishes – the variety of forms of English in use across the world today. You will not just be looking at language on the page but language in use, in particular contexts, by speakers with motives, expectations and cultural knowledge.
Five 9 to 5 grades at GCSE, plus a minimum of grade 6 in English Language GCSE.
This course is a mixture of exams and coursework. At A Level, Paper 1 and Paper 2 are sat at the end of the year and the coursework essay counts for 20% of your final grade.
