In response to teacher feedback, we have made some improvements to the International GCSE English Literature specification. Made in February 2011, these changes will affect June 2012 assessments onwards. Current centres should move over to teaching the 2011 specification from September 2011.
The specifications, sample assessment materials and other documentation are available in the documents list below, labelled 'Issue 2'.
The existing specification and sample assessment materials are valid up until final assessment in January 2012.
