English Language and Literature

Course summary

This stimulating course enables students to engage with a variety of spoken and written texts. It allows them to combine linguistic and literary study with creative writing. Students will develop their understanding of English Language and Literature as a combined discipline. They will discover how different writers represent the same place, approach the same genre, and consider how they can take a piece of nonfiction and recreate it in another form or genre. The course enables students to analyze the three major literary forms: prose, poetry, and drama, as well as a range of literary non-fiction texts. English Language and Literature at A Level provides its students with the ability to communicate clearly and effectively and as such lends itself to any degree that requires the articulate conveyance of analytical and critical thinking.
