The department currently has nine full-time English teachers who have a range of subject strengths, plus other English specialists who contribute to the teaching and learning within the subject such as our very own Librarian. GCSE students can study a total of two subjects in English lessons: English Language and English Literature.

As a department we make full use of online learning and iPads, our texts and resources are engaging: they actively prepare pupils for external examinations whilst providing essential skills necessary to access other subjects. At the heart of the subject is instilling an excitement and love for reading and writing a range of literature.
