Key Stage 3 (Years 7–9) · English & literacy
Non-fiction and persuasive writing
Students learn to write for different non-fiction purposes and audiences, crafting clear explanations, arguments and persuasive pieces that use logical structure, evidence, rhetorical devices, tone control and appropriate register. They practise planning, selecting supporting evidence, using linking devices and adapting language for impact, and employ terminology such as claim, counterargument and bias.
