Year 10 English has a strong emphasis on literacy skills and responding to a variety of written and visual texts. Students will utilise critical thinking skills to analyse different forms of literature. English aims to strengthen all students’ understanding and ability to use language effectively for life-long learning. The focus in Year 10 is developing reading and writing skills in preparation for the Senior school, and working towards success in the upcoming NZQA Literacy co-requisites.
All courses are dependent on student numbers and staffing. Students will be advised if the school is unable to provide the subjects they select. If a course is over-subscribed, students will be required to take part in a selection process.
