GCSE English Literature:
To further your education and your future career

Is the lack of GCSE English Literature holding you back?

The DCA Home Learning GCSE English Literature Course has been written to a specific syllabus. Your course will cover everything you need to pass the all-important examination. In most cases you don’t even need to have a previous knowledge of the subject. You’ll receive a study pack, which includes frequent activities and self-assessment tests, so you know how you are doing.

Don’t let the fact that you did not get a qualification at school hold you back. You are almost certainly better equipped to pass now than you were at 16!

Your GCSE English Literature course gives you the opportunity to explore your literary interests and encourages you to develop the ability to read, understand and respond to a wide range of literary texts. It allows you to appreciate the ways in which authors achieve their effects and develop the skills necessary for literary study.

Your course encourages an awareness of personal, social, historical and cultural contexts and influences in the study of literature. It also develops your ability to construct and convey meaning in speech and writing, matching style to audience and purpose.

Within the course you are required to respond to texts critically, sensitively and in detail, selecting appropriate ways to convey your response, using textual material as appropriate. It also allows you to explore how language, structure and forms contribute to the meanings of texts, considering different approaches to texts and alternative interpretations.
