This course is a continuation of GCSE Latin with more emphasis on literary works. You will acquire understanding of the culture, politics and social life of Rome at significant periods in history, whilst studying elements of the language and literature of the classical world. You will read the literature of ancient Rome in the original language with understanding and critical appreciation; develop an awareness and familiarity of the character of the language and its influence on English and other modern foreign languages; produce accurate and fluid translations of unseen passages and prepared literary works; and evaluate the context in which the ancient cultures of Rome lived and how it relates to our society today. The skills and knowledge gained from studying Latin are highly-valued by Universities and future employers, and many professions such as the law, journalism and politics - which rely on effective communication and excellent language skills - regard it as a great asset. For more information on the course we study, please visit the OCR website. In addition to the general entrance criteria for St Michael's, students must have GCSE Latin.
