English is the most popular subject at A Level in our College; with 18 groups across the entire A Level cohort, this is a fantastic opportunity to teach English to an advanced level. Behaviour in the College is ‘outstanding’ and the positive relationships between student and teacher, alongside the highly motivated students means that teachers can focus on teaching their subject.

At A Level English Language – 67% achieved A* – B out of which 17% were A*/A. English Literature – 67% achieved A* – B out of which 33% were A*/A.
