English Combined - AS/A2
If your interest in English is wide-ranging, this course can combine the best of
all worlds, a chance to write creatively, to read stories, plays and poetry, and
to learn about and analyse how language works in a variety of situations from writing
for children to soap-opera scripting from advertisements to autobiography.
Over the two years you will:
- Study four main literary texts as well as many extracts
- Learn how spoken English differs from written
- Try your hand at various editorial tasks, adapting material
for new purposes
- Have the chance to do your own writing, both fiction and non-fiction
Due to the demands of this course, in addition to the minimum entry requirements
applicants must have a grade 'B' GCSE in English Language.
