An A Level in English opens doors everywhere. Students who can think deeply, analyse ideas, see both sides of an argument, express themselves cogently and persuasively, as well as having a world picture that only comes from reading widely, are welcome in any profession. We want to help you to develop your skills and be challenged by your studies. We also understand that your results are very important; this is what enables you to move on to the next step of your education. The figures speak for themselves: at ‘A’ level there has been a 100% pass rate for many years. The Literature course includes the study of prose, poetry and drama. It involves both close analysis and wider comparison across texts. This remains an important and traditional A level option. The Russell Group, representing the top universities in the UK, describes this as a “facilitating” A level, one of a small number of A level qualifications which helps to keep students’ options open and enables them to apply to elite institutions. The English Literature course is demanding in terms of time and intellect. Any student wishing to study an English course must be willing to read texts independently and be prepared to participate in discussion. The ability to write accurately and analytically is essential.
