About GCSE Classics

GCSE Classics (or GCSE Classical Civilization as some exam boards call it) is the study of the civilization and literature of the Ancient Greeks and Romans.

Why Study GCSE Classics?

Have you seen "Gladiator"? Did you swoon over Brad Pitt in "Troy". How about "300" and the heroic Spartans? GCSE Classics covers a period in history that still provides inspiration to the writers of today. If you enjoy history and literature this could be your ideal subject.

GCSE Classics: What Will I Study?

The GCSE Classics course covers the Greeks and Romans. It is split into two main areas, civilization and literature. For the first part you'll look at life in Ancient Greece and Rome. Topics could include religion, family life, art and sport. That means gladiators, Olympics and lots of naked statues.


The literature part is where you study the writings of authors who wrote their histories and plays two thousand years ago. They're translated so you won't have to learn Latin or Greek - there are separate GCSEs if you want to do that. You could read Homer's story of the war with Troy, Tacitus on some of the Roman Emperors or Aristophanes' drama "Lysistrata", where the Greek women manage to stop the men fighting for a change.


GCSE Classics is usually assessed with two exam papers. Some exam boards let you study the course in modules and retake parts you want to improve.

GCSE Classics... What Can I Study Next?

A Level Classics is one option. GCSE Classics might also prove useful for those planning on studying archaeology, ancient history or drama at college or university.

Recent Reviews of Classics Essays

What our users think of the Classics essays in this section:

"I thoroughly enjoyed the author's playful and knowledgable story-telling of The Trojan War. It both entertains and informs -- a grand combination!"
drcpiercedavis
"really useful"
eddog
"I also thought this was an imaginative way to retell the story of Troy, which read very well. The only bit I didn't much like was the 'hello' and 'goodbye', which were the only grammatical errors in the piece, but also felt like they were in the wrong place. It would've made it even better to omit them altogether. Otherwise, a very enjoyable and accurate retelling. "
