What the college says

Students study a range of texts across the three literary genres, poetry, prose and drama. They also study texts from different periods up to and including post 2000 literature. Throughout the course, students will develop their ability to enjoy and understand texts by enhancing their powers of analysis and judgement. They will consider writers’ literary techniques, their methods and possible intentions. Evaluative discussion is fostered and links between texts and contextual factors are explored. The course consists of four units at A-level, covering eight texts in total. A diverse collection of poetry and prose will also be used to develop the skills of practical criticism.
