Carmel College
Level 1 English 2025
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Pauline Larkin.
English is compulsory at Year 11.
The Level 1 English course is structured around two inter-connected strands: receiving information through listening, reading and viewing; creating information through speaking, writing and presenting. Modules of work integrate these aspects. The programme is structured to encourage broad curriculum coverage for all students. Students will continue to study a range of literature which includes a range of visual and written texts. They will also practice reading and understanding unfamiliar texts, and complete an academic study of both creative and formal writing techniques required for crafting and producing these text types. All texts will be required to be at Level 6 of the New Zealand curriculum and all assessments will be through achievement standards.
