Overview

GCE English Language  

Developed in consultation with teachers and professional organisations, our suite of GCE English specifications supports teachers in new approaches to the teaching and study of English, while valuing best practice. Our English Language and Literature specification builds on the knowledge, understanding and skills established at GCSE and allows teachers the flexibility to meet differing student interests and needs. The themes are presented as questions and issues to explore.

The English Language and Literature e-Spec combines the specification, SAMs and other materials in an easy-to-use interactive electronic package.
