The Year 10 English course builds on the foundations of Year 9, further developing students' reading, writing, speaking, listening, and viewing skills. Students will engage with a range of texts, deepening their ability to interpret themes, characters, and language techniques. Writing tasks will focus on refining structure, clarity, and style across different genres. Literacy skills is a strong focus for Year 10 as students approach NCEA and the requirements to pass the Common Assessment Activities.
