What the college says

Studying the Subject - English Literature is both exciting and challenging. It gives students the opportunity to pursue their own reading tastes and to experience a wide range of writing from Shakespeare to literature published after 2000. We encourage students to develop an informed personal response to what they have read, based on close analysis, independent thinking and class discussion. Throughout the AS and A Level courses, independent wider reading is an essential element as is the need to place texts in their social and historical context. The A Level coursework provides the opportunity for students to choose their own texts with guidance from their teacher.
