Welcome to A-Level English Literature

My name is Mrs Martin, Head of English at Roundwood Park, and it is my pleasure to introduce you to A Level English Literature. The A Level course is delivered with passion and the benefit of years of experience by the team at Roundwood Park and we have a history of strong results and students going on to take English Literature at degree level.

This is an exciting course, which enables you to explore so many different literary forms, genres, and the passion with which writers have communicated their ideas about the world. A Level Literature builds on both the skills you have developed at GCSE, but also covers fascinating texts that broaden your insights and challenge your perceptions. You will find this course is a perfect blend of literary analysis, politics, history, philosophy and psychology.

I urge you to consider this classic, but dynamic A Level choice. Should you have any questions, myself or any of the English teachers will be happy to answer them.
