The importance of
English
English is a vital way of communicating in school, in public life
and internationally. Literature in English is rich and influential,
reflecting the experience of people from many countries and
times.In studying English pupils develop skills in speaking,
listening, reading and writing. It enables them to express
themselves creatively and imaginatively and to communicate with
others effectively. Pupils learn to become enthusiastic and
critical readers of stories, poetry and drama as well as
non-fiction and media texts.The study of English helps pupils
understand how language works by looking at its patterns,
structures and origins. Using this knowledge pupils can choose and
adapt what they say and write in different situations. |
