Our Classical Greek A level course develops not only your linguistic ability but also equips you with new analytical and evaluative skills, which are highly prized by universities and employers.

The value of a classical language as a mental discipline should not be underestimated: it encourages precision, conciseness and logic in a way that few other subjects can replicate. These qualities make classical languages an obvious choice for someone going on to read Law, for instance, or Social Sciences. A report by Professor Shearer West of Oxford University, in the wake of the economic crisis, demonstrating the impact and value of studying humanities over sciences, concluded that employers are looking for candidates with “succinct and persuasive written and verbal communication skills and the capacity for critical analysis and synthesis’.

Graduates leave with a qualification that enhances many other subjects and provides a good foundation for a wide range of university courses and careers
