Throughout S1 Pupils develop knowledge of language and character across the year.  Pupils are given a chance to lead their own learning through project based learning and engaging in a genre study.  Pupils are heavily encouraged to read widely through their reading periods.

The S2 experience builds on the skills developed throughout S1. Pupils develop a greater understanding of how impact is created in a text. Pupils also begin to explore media texts in depth, explore how experience is communicated.

Pupils explore differing forms of writing, both personal and critical and explore social issues as presented through central texts.

We also advance our Literacy Programme to expand interest in more forms of literature.
