How are they different? English Literature: Knowledge English Language – skills
For English Lit you will need to know the texts you have studied really well. There are a few things you can do now to help you: Keep your exercise book neat this will become one of your most effective revision tools – keep it organised and ensure you have access to everything you need to know when the time comes Check anything you don’t understand NOW there will not be time to find it out later Talk about what you are learning – every time you do this you articulate your knowledge – exactly what you need to do in the exam Use Active Revision Techniques: Active revision is around 80% more effective than passive revision.
There is only one way to improve skills in any subject –practise! Revise your key words and make yourself use them in written work and when you are discussing Keep a spelling log Go back to basics and learn and test yourself on spellings you have previously gotten wrong Use correct grammar even if you are only sending a text message Keep up to date with your green penning

There are 2 tiers of entry
• Higher or foundation
• Students are being put in groups based on where we think they will be
• It is flexible, they can move up and down depending on how they work
• If students want to get a 5 or higher they need to be doing higher
