GCSE Classical Civilisation (OCR)

A little info about this class...

This course will cover the full OCR Classical Civilisation course across two years, equipping students with the necessary skills to enjoy and excel at Classics. In these sessions, we will cover a range of topics from the Ancient Greek and Roman world, as well as learn to analyse literature and pieces of archaeology to gain insights into civilisations from the distant past. As with all of my classes, we will focus on the fascinating stories of individuals who came before us, to help the students compare and contrast their own life experiences with the men and women of the ancient world.

GCSE Classical Civilisation Paper 1 – Monday 3pm – 9am class coming soon
This class covers  the Paper 1 topic “Myth and Religion.”

GCSE Classical Civilisation Paper 2 – Mondays 11am
This class covers the Paper 2 topic “Roman City Life”.

Students wishing to cover all topics to take the examination within one year can join both IGCSE Classical Civilisations lessons each week. Those who want to continue to study over two years should choose one class for the first year and switch to the other in the second year.

Unlike all our other courses, the price for GCSE is £5.00 +VAT per student a week to reflect the amount of work the teacher will need to do to successfully guide you through your GCSE. All marking and feedback is included in the price. You will be expected to do 1 – 2 hours of independent work each week.

Due to some of its themes and content of this course, the age for this class is 14 – 16. If your child is younger than 14 but you would like them to study this course, please make sure that you are aware of the content and either watch the recordings before your child watches them or watch the lessons with your child to ensure that you are happy with the content and can talk it through with your child.

For safeguarding purposes, each Zoom lesson includes a brief registration at the beginning which requires children to have their webcam switched on. If your child would like to join lessons but is anxious about this or needs to have their face covered during lessons for religious or any other reason please get in touch, and we can arrange an alternate method of registration for them.
