If you are someone who enjoys analysing novels, poems and plays and considering how they are affected by when and where they were written, this is the course for you. There is a strong emphasis on reading and discussion work in lessons and original ideas and interpretations are valued. We welcome students with inquiring minds who are prepared to explore and discuss a wide range of modern texts which are both challenging in their style and subject matter. You will consider texts in light of their critical reception and consider how their meaning may have altered for readers over time. You will be expected to produce a variety of written work, including two pieces of coursework at AS, one of which is a creative task, and you will be expected to undertake a considerable amount of independent work. A Level English Literature is accepted as an entry qualification for all but the most specialised university degree courses and is a sensible subject to accompany most other A Level choices. Studying English teaches you to think analytically, read complex texts with understanding and express your ideas clearly and accurately. These are skills which are highly valued in all walks of life. Career options are varied including jobs in drama and theatre, writing, publishing, journalism, marketing, PR, advertising and teaching. The qualification can also be useful in business and the legal profession.
