Besant Hill's English Department strives to instill an acute appreciation of written works in our students and to foster a broader understanding of the world through the examination of the canvas of literature and the paint of language. We attempt to offer a thorough and expansive view of all genres of the written form, linking thoughtful expression of ideas with comprehensive appreciation of historical and global perspectives. The department places a strong emphasis on developing analytical and creative writing skills that allow students to freely communicate their ideas and feelings in a creative manner.
