40% of marks are allocated to controlled assessment. 20% will be awarded for responses to Spoken and Written Language, and 20% for Speaking and Listening. Students will therefore be working towards their overall GCSE grade throughout their course of study.

In English Literature our students will have the opportunity to study a range of literary texts. They will initially study John Steinbeck’s classic novella Of Mice and Men and a range of unseen prose texts taken from the nineteenth century. Following this, they will explore a range of poetry collated under the theme of relationships. In Year 12, they will study the Shakespeare play Macbeth and J.B. Priestley’s An Inspector Calls to complete this course.
