Latin

UPDATED 20161031 13:39:45

A Level Latin specifications are designed to inspire, motivate and challenge - encouraging students to read widely, and gain a deeper understanding of the life and culture of the ancient world through the literature studied. Language skills are developed to enable learners to read both prose and verse texts in the original language. Students will develop and apply critical analytical skills, with which to sensitively engage and evaluate the ancient language. Learning Latin can be invaluable in improving the English language skills of students. Classical subjects can allow an amazing amount of scope for building Equality and Diversity into the curriculum: from women in the Ancient World, to the study of religious beliefs and ancient acts of intolerance. All Classics subjects involve extended writing, developing core essay and critical analytical skills, equipping them to progress to higher education.
