Level 3 Classical Studies (3CLS)

Subject Description

Teacher in Charge: Ms E. Petrove, Mr E. Brown.

In Level 3 Classical Studies we study events, literature, art, politics, people and ideas of ancient Greece. We examine the way these were significant and the way they influence our world today. Classical Studies provides students studying humanities and STEM subjects with the literacy, research and analytical skills required at a tertiary level. Transferable skills necessary to function effectively in the 21st Century are also covered. The broad-ranging nature of Classical Studies makes it relevant to a wide and varied range of careers. 

Students complete both internals and select two of the three external standards to sit.
