Alongside the study of conflict, love and how those two ideas intertwine in Romeo and Juliet, students in year 9 have the opportunity to consider the media through our Film unit as well as exploring big ideas such as the portrayal of gender, power and race in the modern day world and in literature through the ages. At GCSE, students study An Inspector Calls, Macbeth, AQA’s Power and Conflict poetry anthology alongside Jekyll and Hyde creating a broad and powerful knowledge base for further study at A Level.
