After this, student do the secondary courses Basic Literature 7, 8, and 9 which includes 6 literature books and corresponding PACES (with the exception of Basic Literature 7*).  The PACE numbers increase by 2 as it is designed to be completed in one year.

Literature resources include biographies and classic novels, the focus being on building Christian character and challenging mainstream ideas.

Literature 8 and 9 are mandatory subjects for the Year 10 Certificate, however, the Year 11 and 12 Literature is incorporated into the English PACEs.
