Eleverne har arbejdet med ulighed i Storbritannien fra Thatcherism i 1980'erne til moderne tid med udvalgte cases med the Grenfell Tower fire og Marcus Rashfords campaign for free school meals.

EXAM Culture Clash
The texts in this theme are based around the idea of a clash of cultures in its widest sense. The course starts with the most obvious clash of cultures - that of the clash between different peoples living within a set 'national' culture.
We will read a variety of texts from different English speaking countries; our main focus will be on Australia and the UK; where we will read different texts on the clash between the whites and the Aborigines and the different societies / classes in the UK, and the conflicts that arise in society as a consequence.
Texts include:
The Film: Rabbit Proof Fence
'Going Home'
Freddie Andrews: interview with the white Aboriginal
Kevin Rudd's Apology
Project work on Aboriginals

EXAM The Beast Fable and Animal Farm
In this course we will read George Orwell's book 'Animal Farm' as our starting point. We will use the book to help us understand why writers write stories about talking animals and how these stories help the writer to put a message across and appeal to a wider reading audience.
We will work on the idea of the beast or animal fable and how this trope has been used in literature as far back as Ancient Greece in Aesops Fables.
Other works we might read in connection with the course include:
Oscar Wilde's fairy story 'The Happy Prince' (which has a talking statue and a talking swallow)
We have looked at the animal fable and discussed how these animals have both characteristics that we associate with the animal itself (Pigs = inteliigence); but also how they also show human traits in the stories
e.g. (The pigs in Animal Farm love food and luxury).
Thus these stories are written both for children and for adults;
The child reader recognises the animal's traits while the adult reader understands that humans, like pigs, have baser instincts that we need to keep in check to maintain our humanity.

EXAM American Dreams and American Nightmares
This course focuses on the American dream; we will be working on non-fiction and fiction texts. We will start the course with a short focus on the history of the USA, in order to gain an understanding of the American psyche and how the colonisation of America and the push to the West in the 1800's have contributed to the ideal of 'a pioneer spirit'.
The course started with us reading 'The New Colossus' (the poem from the foot of the Statue of Liberty. This is meant as an introduction to the ideals that lie behind the American Dream. Texts read also include texts on the American Frontier Spirit, the study of the film 'Into the Wild' from 2004.
We have read:
The New Colossus
The Frontier Heritage
Into the Wild
We have also worked with the situation for African-Americans during the course and if USA can be said to have systemic racism. We have read texts by Joe Biden, Nic Stone (Dear Martin) and an article by Nikole Hannah-Jones on School Segregation (The Tragedy of Ferguson).
Useful words include: American dream, Pioneer spirit, the push to the West, slavery, inequality, Afro-American,
