| The course aims to develop critical judgement and a confident
personal response to all forms of poetry, prose and drama. Naturally,
a good deal of reading is involved; personal input, enthusiasm
and self-motivation are, therefore, essential. To support your efforts, there are videos, audiotapes, library reference books, theatre visits and, of course, an experienced team of well qualified teachers. Visits are arranged to lectures on set texts and students are kept up to date with relevant university courses of interest. Higher Education and Career opportunities: It has long been recognised that the study of English Literature is of great value in areas as diverse as Law, Journalism, Media and Management. We hope that, ultimately, our students leave BRGS with a lifelong love of literature, as well as an excellent and highly valued qualification for their future careers. |
