Teacher in Charge: Mr M. Lower.
This academic course is intended for students who enjoy reading a wide variety of literary texts. Emphasis is placed on developing your ability to analyse and evaluate texts as well as your ability to synthesise your understandings and form your own conclusions. You will develop your critical thinking and essay writing skills in preparation for an external standard. Additionally, you will complete three internally assessed standards: a theme-based Connections study, a Research enquiry and the Writing Portfolio.
