English Advanced

ENGLISH ADVANCED

Board Developed Course (ATAR) - 2 Units

The English Advanced Course is best suited for students that have a passion for English and are generally confident English readers and writers.  It is designed for students to become critical and sophisticated users of English and to develop their academic achievement through the study of complex texts. This course is also a prerequisite to enrol in our 1 Unit English Extension courses.

In this course students explore the ways that events, experiences, ideas, and processes are represented in and through texts. It requires extensive research and for students to analyse and evaluate texts through critical readings. Students will further develop their skills in reading, writing, listening, speaking, viewing and representing.

 

PREREQUISITE

Students who wish to study either English Extension 1 or English Extension 2 must select English Advanced.
