What the college says

If you enjoyed studying both fiction and non-fiction texts at GCSE, then this is the course for you. You may prefer not to study the full Literature A-Level, because you would like to have the opportunity for writing creatively as well as analysis of texts. Finally, you may simply enjoy looking in fine detail at language and the many ways it used in both writing and speech.

Grade 6 in both English Language and English Literature at GCSE

How you are assessed

Academic subjects, mostly exams, three or four at once. The traditional route to university.

What this level means

The A-level-equivalent step, and what universities and employers ask for.
