What the college says

English Literature A Level develops your skills in thinking, communication, empathy, creativity and evaluation, and is highly valued by universities and employers. If you enjoy reading, discussing and analysing texts and the challenge of constructing carefully evidenced arguments and essays, you will love A Level Literature. You will study books, plays and poems from a range of historical periods. Reading allows you to share authors’ feelings and experience, broadening your understanding of humanity, the world and ideas, and encouraging reflection and exploration. You will also study critical theory that demonstrates how texts can be reinterpreted and develop your own critical voice. Writing critical essays will teach you the value of rigorous argument and clear communication. Discussions will be wide-ranging, fun and help you articulate and develop your thinking and understanding.
