About this course

Content

  • Pearson Edexcel Specification A

    This is Block 6 and it is essential that Blocks 1 to 5 are completed BEFORE starting this one.

    This is Block 6 of IGCSE English Language (2027 cohort) with Pearson Edexcel, Specification A. The course is taught over two years, with each block following on from the previous one, giving students who feel ready the opportunity to enter for the exam in May/June or November 2027.

    Please note that this block will have exactly the same content as the recordings from earlier cohorts, but you will have the opportunity to participate in live lessons, rather than recordings.

    Having introduced the structure of Paper 1, we are now continuing to study the ten anthology texts (a PDF of the anthology is available online and will be provided). Responses will be modelled and discussed during the session and tasks will be set for independent completion.

    So far, we have studied “H is for Hawk”, “The Explorer’s Daughter”, “Chinese Cinderella”, “A Passage to Africa”, “Young and Dyslexic – You’ve Got It Going On.”, “The Danger of A Single Story”, “Explorers or boys messing about? Either way, taxpayer gets rescue bill” and “Between A Rock and a Hard Place” and will continue with the remaining texts, “A Game of Polo with a Headless Goat” and “Journey to Bhutan” to complete our study of the Paper 1 anthology in this block.

  • Course Objectives:

    We will be looking at content and themes, language, structure and writers’ perspectives and contexts.

    We will consider how texts can be compared and how we write about them.

    Specialist Resources Needed:

    The Pearson Edexcel IGCSE Anthology for Specification A. This has been provided on the dashboard for previous blocks as a digital copy to download and print and can be obtained free of charge from the exam board.

Louise, parent

“As well as being amazed at the range of lessons available on the hub, I have been delighted to find that the teachers have all been not only knowledgeable, but so friendly, kind and encouraging to all the learners. The lessons are calm and non-stressful, just what my child needs. Thank you to everyone at the hub.”

Hub parent

“We have been studying with the hub for many years now and both my boys have really appreciated the variety of courses available and the wonderfully inspiring teachers you have. We have done loads of courses, many of which have allowed my boys have successfully gained GCSEs and other qualifications like arts awards”

Katharine, parent

“I would like to say a huge Thank you for your incredible service. Such a brilliant concept and as an ex-teacher I'm very impressed with the quality of teaching, resources, well everything really! My 14year old is like a different child nowadays, wish I had deregistered him years ago in hindsight. Thank you!”

Claire, parent

“I just wanted to say thank you so much for all you do at the Hub. It is such a Godsend for us. Our kids are enjoying their lessons, the live interaction with other kids and the lovely, lovely teachers. Where did you find such wonderful, knowledgeable but incredibly patient people?! It’s such a relief our kids can get a tailor made, good quality, British style education even as we live out this slightly crazy life here in the Mexican jungle! Thank you very much to all involved.”

Carolyn, parent

“Very grateful for all your hard work, and thankful for all your help during these 4 years (can't believe it's been so long) - you don't know and I can't express in words how much pressure you take of our shoulders with this amazing palette of classes that you offer.”

Cristiana, parent

“I've recommended so many people to the hub, you guys have revolutionised home ed for us. Literally. After building up our confidence with using the hub, I've actually been able to take on work based back out in the community while my daughter is at home studying. Thanks for everything you are doing! ”

Tina, parent

“A massive thankyou for all you do at the £2 hub, we have been with you from the start and seen you grow but this is the first time we have done GCSE exams with you, and with great results! Thanks ”

Hub parent

“After a year of mostly science and art, my child has recently started Creative Writing class. From the first lesson I was blown away by the quality of the teaching, the standard of work the children were submitting and the supportive environment of the group. The tutor has a fantastic rapport with her students and it is also so nice (and great for their self-confidence) to see the students give each other great feedback and encouragement.”
