A Level English

Course summary

English Literature A level shows universities and employers that you can analyse, research and write to a high academic standard, with the ability to think critically, explore interpretations and understand literary, historical and social contexts. By studying this subject you will read widely, develop independent thought and learn to challenge perspectives while expressing ideas with originality. At Haggerston we teach a diverse range of authors and texts that foster historical awareness, social understanding and political insight, alongside enrichment opportunities such as theatre trips, lectures from leading academics and university visits.
