What the college says

2 Year A Level. Students will learn about the history, culture, society, theatre and literature of Ancient Greece from two of the most influential periods in human development. To study Classical Civilisations, students should be genuinely interested in the classical/ancient world, but also enjoy lessons like English literature, since it is similar to studying that, but also be keen on studying something a bit different. Successful students will have intellectual curiosity, will be motivated and inspired by the study of ancient sources, will not be put off by unusual and sometimes difficult texts and will actively develop their knowledge through wider reading. Students with an interest in the origins of literature, theatre and civilisation are encouraged to take the course.
