The ability to read accurately for understanding as well as to express ourselves precisely is fundamental to all school subjects, just as it is in all areas of our lives. This means that well developed skills in reading, writing and speaking are absolutely essential.

Furthermore, imaginative appreciation of our world and an understanding of experiences beyond our own environment is found in good literature.

English courses offered at Howick College give students the opportunity to be life-long learners.
