Students will continue to develop the key skills of English through presenting, writing, and close reading (both written text and visual texts). Texts studied in previous years include: The Handmaid's Tale, The Road, Othello, Frankenstein, The Great Gatsby, The Water Cure, Atonement and others.
There are at least 12 credits offered through internals in this course (depending on student selection). A further four credits are offered through the external examinations.
