GCSE English Language aims to help students be able to read and write effectively. These are some of the most important life skills secondary education can offer children hence why a pass at this subject is considered mandatory. The final GCSE Exams tests students’ skills in:
• reading a wide range of texts, fluently and with good understanding
• reading critically, and using knowledge gained from wide reading to inform and improve their
own writing
• writing effectively and coherently, using appropriate English
• using grammar correctly, punctuating and spelling accurately
• acquiring and applying a wide vocabulary.
