English

The English Department at Newcastle Bridges School aspire to create a supportive and stimulating learning environment for our learners.  We hope to instil in our pupils an appreciation of the value of our subject and an interest in reading, whether for pleasure, interest or information, and to develop their knowledge of the world.  We strongly believe in the power of literature to explore ideas about the human condition and the world we live in, to encourage reflection upon experiences beyond our own, and to promote values of tolerance and diversity.
