A LEVEL ENGLISH LITERATURE
Course Overview
The International A Level English Literature course is spread out over two years with the possibility for an Advanced Subsidiary (AS) Level or Advanced (A) Level qualification.
Students will study two drama texts; a selection of post-2000 poems as well as a one post-2000 novel; one pre-1900 literary poetry movement; a Shakespearean play; and post-1900 poetry and one prose.
Students will learn to:
- Read widely and independently set texts and others that they have selected for themselves
- Engage critically and creatively with a substantial body of texts and ways of responding to them
- Develop and effectively apply their knowledge of literary analysis and evaluation
- Explore the contexts of the texts they are reading and others’ interpretations of them
- Undertake independent and sustained studies to deepen their appreciation and understanding of English literature, including its changing traditions.
