- Term 2 — Students will evaluate how authors integrate historical information into their works with a close focus on war writing. They will implement these skills into their writing.
- Term 3 — A close study of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream will teach students how to analyse a dramatic text and focus on how the text explores complex themes and values.
