IGCSE English Language
Outstanding education
The English Language IGCSE teaches students to communicate effectively.
The IGCSE course aims to:
- Enable students to understand and critically read a wide range of texts from different genres, cultures and time periods.
- Develop students’ ability to analyse texts using the correct terminology and to form considered opinions.
- Develop and improve their own writing based on their study of texts.
- Enable students to write in Standard English correctly using a wide vocabulary and employing the correct grammar.
- Facilitate students’ effective use and understanding of spoken language.
The IGCSE course exposes students to a diverse range of texts and teaches them to communicate effectively, creatively and accurately through spoken and written language.
Assessment is through a combination of examination and coursework.
