Year 10 - English

Overview

In Year 10 English students will develop and justify their own interpretation of texts. They do this using evidence to support their view, explaining different viewpoints, attitudes, and perspectives through the development of cohesive and logical arguments, both in the written and oral form, and through the creation of a wide range of texts using appropriate grammar and vocabulary.
