A Level English Literature

UPDATED 20161103 17:36:27

This specification encourages students to understand how narrative works, to look at genre and to learn about critical approaches to texts. Students discover how central narrative is to the way literary texts work and they are introduced to the different aspects of genre. Encouraging wide and independent reading, the course also considers different types of critical approach and how texts can reflect cultural meanings. Students focus on genre and meaning through a variety of interesting set texts. They are encouraged to extend their awareness of critical methods and become independent readers. Genre and narrative are at the core of this specification. Students see that Literature consists of possible groups of texts which can be categorised, their meaning negotiated in many different ways. They compare how stories can be told to create different realities and convey cultural meanings. The minimum entry requirement for this course is GCSE grade 6 (or grade B) in English Literature.
