Why take this Course?

National 3 English offers pupils the opportunity to develop straightforward language skills in the context of literature, language and media.

What will I learn?

There are 3 compulsory units:

Understanding Language: understanding, analysing and evaluating texts.

Producing Language: producing simple texts, both written and oral.

Literacy: Understanding ideas and information presented orally and in writing; communicating ideas orally and in writing with sufficient degree of technical accuracy, e.g. punctuation, grammar and spelling.

How will I be assessed?
