Greek

Years 10 and 11 - optional GCSE (short course)
Sixth Form - optional AS and A2

GCSE Greek is a rapid course.  We use a new textbook, 'Greek for GCSE' by John Taylor which provides clear exposition of grammar, exercises to consolidate knowledge and stories derived from Greek literature to foster reading and introduce Greek culture. In the second year of the course students will read real Greek in both prose and verse set texts.

AS and A2 (OCR).  Two Greek authors are studied in Year 12 for the literature papers and language work follows a similar pattern to GCSE, being examined by unseen translation.  In Year 13 the language work is examined by unseen translation and comprehension (or prose composition), and we study or two further works of literature.
