GCE A Level in Classical Civilisation
at The Judd School, Tonbridge · school or sixth form
What the college says
You do not have to have studied Latin or Classical Civilisation at GCSE Level to study Classical Civilisation at A Level. Classical Civilisation involves the study of some of the greatest works of literature ever written, works which have had a profound effect on the western world. The study of Classical Civilisation will suit anyone who is interested in the Classical World. It does not matter if you have studied any Latin before; there is no language element. Classical Civilisation is a fascinating and wide-ranging subject as it involves literature, drama, history, politics, philosophy and religion: candidates in previous years have enjoyed sharing their thoughts on some or all of these areas. The subject is highly regarded in its own right but it may also appeal to anyone studying English, History or RS, and to anyone interested in other branches of Classics, such as Archaeology, Latin or Greek. It can also work well as a contrast to other subjects such as Sciences, to show a wide range of interests.
