Studying your A Level
The English Language A Level course introduces students to advanced language study and develops your ability to write for a variety of audiences and purposes. You will study English as a medium of communication and as a topic in its own right.
Language is seen as both a creative tool for expression and a means of social connection. During your studies you will discover how to use linguistic frameworks to analyse and interpret language.
You will learn how to pursue lines of enquiry, debate different views, and research aspects of language in use.
This A Level will cover textual variation and representations, language diversity, writing skills, original writing and more.
When you have completed this A Level you will be able to draw academic insights from a range of fields within the study of English language/linguistics, including sociolinguistics and discourse analysis. You will also have demonstratable skills in the written form and creative writing.
