What the college says

Class time will be spent on active tasks such as discussions to build on the reading and preparation you will have done in advance. As a follow-up to lessons you will craft discursive essays and research-based investigations. There are two examined units - Love Through the Ages and Texts in Shared Contexts. The final unit is Independent Critical Study - Texts Across Time, which is decided by non-exam assessment.

What you need to get on
