What the college says

Studying English Language at A-Level will give you the opportunity to think about language as it is used, by real people, in the real world. It's a fascinating subject area that is refreshingly different from anything you will have studied in GCSE English. Consider this: you may be woken up by the voice of the news presenter and register the headline about Trump's latest conundrum. You go on to take a shower and the cosy-chatty-witty label on your shampoo makes you smile. On the way to school the slogan on a new billboard catches your eye. You notice the sign in your favourite coffee shop and wonder when words like frappuccino and babyccino were first invented. You absent-mindedly glance at the leaflet about an exhibition that was just pushed in your hands. As you approach the school gates, you hear your mates sharing a saucy story before suddenly changing their topic and tone when they see the biology teacher appearing from round the corner.
