What will I learn? AS English Language in the Sixth Form is very different from GCSE though many skills learnt at this level are very useful. The aims of the course are: to increase awareness of the kind of language that surrounds us in both written and spoken form; to develop your written English for a variety of audiences and purposes; to closely analyse written and spoken language. What skills do I need? The ability to form a personal response to what you read and hear; enjoy personal reading; a willingness to do research and background reading; commitment and enthusiasm! Students who do well in English Language typically have A*- B GCSE grades in English Literature and Language. How is the course graded? AS English Language is a stand-alone one year course.
