This is part of a course of language and literature study at Key Stage 4. The course covers language work and literary and non-literary texts including contemporary and pre-20th century poetry, literature, drama and media. In addition to a course book, there are seven self-contained literature study books, each leading the student through the close study of a major or set text, or prescribed period of poetry within its historical, social and cultural context. This volume explores the text of "Great Expectations" and offers ideas and material to support the GCSE student's reading of the text. It begins by looking at short sections of the text to establish the main plot lines and the characters. It then presents a series of activities which aim to develop investigative approaches and an understanding of key themes and Dickens' narrative style. There are also opportunities for students to research the historical, social and cultural background of the novel, and draw some parallels with contemporary experience and values. Written and oral tasks help generate course work and give opportunities for oral assessment.

...they are beautifully produced: sturdily made, finely printed and illustrated, with clear, inviting and highly practical layout. There is an editorial team behind them with a track record known to many teachers, inspiring confidence and producing consistency. There is care not just for the integrity of the text being studied, but for the methodology used. Pupils respond to the texts with reading, writing, speaking and listening: the indivisibility of English as a subject is never lost sight of. But what makes the books most rworth having is the understanding of the texts themselves: not only in their historical and social contexts, but also as aesthetic objects obeying laws and structures of their own. I recommend them strongly. (Times Educational Supplement)
