4 English A-level Programs

A-levels are internationally recognised qualifications. Universities in many countries will accept three A level A-C grades as meeting the admissions criteria across a wide range of courses.

English Language A level is a challenging academic course which is respected by universities. It enables you to look under the surface of language and to see how meaning is often conveyed in ways that are not explicit. It is a subject that matches up well with other humanities subjects.

Developing and nurturing a variety of assessment styles – including data analysis, discursive essays, directed writing, original writing and research-based investigative writing—you will develop your appreciation of the many forms and contexts of the English language.

Students may study a pre-1914 poetry anthology and creative writing in both spoken and written modes for Paper 1. To enable this, students study methods of language analysis including how language sounds, grammatical structures, the choice of words and the assumptions speakers, writers, listeners and readers make.
