GCSE English

GCSE English has been set by the Government as the 'gold standard' qualification. It is an essential subject that will benefit you in achieving your career aspirations. English will help you across all your subjects, in your future career and in life. GCSE English Language is not only a requirement set by the Government, it is also a requirement for all universities, further education and Apprenticeships. From September 2016 this qualification is changing and we will be teaching the new specification AQA 8700. This will enable young people and adults of all abilities to develop the skills they need to read, understand and analyse a wide range of different texts covering the 19th, 20th and 21st century time periods as well as to write clearly, coherently and accurately using a range of vocabulary and sentence structures.
