English
The English department seeks to inspire passionate readers and proficient writers through a culture rooted in collaborative learning, creative thinking, cultural exploration, and intellectual rigour.
The English curriculum at Avanti Fields is committed to enhancing the intellectual and cultural lives of our students. By delivering access to literary work spanning a plethora of eras, cultures and civilisations through impassioned, strategic and differentiated teaching, the department works to develop and sustain an ambitious level of critical and creative thinking about literature and the world.
By cultivating an understanding and appreciation of English language – both written and spoken – through a number of challenging units throughout the academic year, students will develop their own language and communication skills that will serve them in all fields.
As such, the curriculum is carefully designed and sequenced to not only feed into the skills, knowledge-base, styles and formats which GCSE examinations will demand of our students, but for functions in society beyond academic life.
