English
The English Department aims to deliver a diverse curriculum which provides students with an engaging and comprehensive experience of English study in all its forms.
Our goal is to develop our students as curious, articulate, and tolerant young people who are ready to go out into the world as confident communicators, with developed analytical and creative writing skills.
English is key to success across the curriculum, and in life. We provide an ambitious, broad and creative curriculum whilst also fulfilling National Curriculum requirements. We foster the skill, knowledge and determination required for students to become lifelong learners. Our aim is to give the students a wealth of opportunities to build their knowledge and to be ready to take any path they wish to pursue once leaving school and throughout their lives.
