Westlane’s English Department offers you a chance to study classic and contemporary literature as you travel to New York, Scotland, Italy, Denmark, England and other locations on a literary adventure. 

Your English teachers will support you through the Literacy Test, introduce you to new technology, offer you a day of theatre and shopping in Toronto, and provide you with many opportunities through contests such as the Marion Drysdale Awards and A&E Lives That Make a Difference Contest.

Your compulsory courses offer you the chance to expand on your reading, writing, media and communication skills.  However, we offer elective courses like Writer’s Craft and Popular Literature where you can really explore your passion for English.

You’re not here because you have to be, but because you want to be!
