Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Mrs A. Botha.

Pre-requisites

Subject to confirmation by Y10 teachers and HOLA.


Year 11 English will further develop a student's reading, writing and critical thinking skills.   Students have many opportunities to develop the ability to respond to a range of literature texts.  The course builds on a student's ability to form opinions about texts and to work closely with the way in which language creates effects.  Students will complete an in-depth study of at least one film and at least one form of written text - this might be a novel, a poetry study or a play.  Some classes may study more than one written genre.  Students will be entered into two internal and two external standards and may earn up to 20 credits in this course.
