English is the international language of aviation, business, commerce, communication, computing, science, medicine, and tourism along with many industries, so whatever career you want to go into in the future, a good standard of English writing, reading and speaking skills is essential.
GCSE English is widely recognised by many employers as a qualification they look for when recruiting staff, in fact they often ask for a specific grade in their job descriptions and so a good grade could be the difference between you getting the job instead of someone else.
By studying GCSE English you will not only gain an understanding and appreciation of a range of writing styles across a range of genres including fictional and non-fictional text, as well as in essays, reviews, news articles and online copy.
You will develop reading and critical thinking skills and learn how to write in a confident, clear and coherent manner suitable for a variety of topics and audiences.
