6.1 Full Non-fiction Anthology
Study every text in the WJEC non-fiction anthology and identify social, relational, temporal, spatial, generic and linguistic connections.
How to use this integrated English guide
Keep language and literature connected: analyse vocabulary, grammar, syntax, structure, form and context together, then transfer that understanding into speaking and writing.
Core concepts
Concept 1
All five themes and every continuous, non-continuous and spoken-transcript text
Exam cue: Confirm the current integrated WJEC award route, unit, text or anthology requirement and live assessment task before applying a strategy.
Concept 2
Information, ideas, viewpoints, purposes, language, grammar, syntax, structure and form
Exam cue: Create a text map across the entire anthology so evidence can be selected by connection rather than remembered only by theme.
Concept 3
Connections involving time, place, space, setting, language, relationships, genre and purpose
Exam cue: Link linguistic and literary analysis: name the exact choice, explain how it creates meaning, and connect it to context, viewpoint, purpose or audience.
Risk pitfalls and guardrails
Preparing only the Unit 3 selected theme or ignoring layout and spoken features in non-continuous and transcript texts.
Guardrail: Confirm whether the material is common, centre-selected, WJEC-prescribed for the series, Single-only or Double-only before applying it.
Importing the legacy separated English Language or English Literature structure, an Eduqas specification or another board's assessment rules.
Guardrail: Do not import the legacy separated specifications, bind optional texts universally or combine mutually exclusive award routes.
Treating optional texts, current biennial NEA tasks or route-specific units as universal requirements for every learner.
Guardrail: Use Units 1-3 plus 4a for Single or Units 1-3 plus 4b, 5 and 6 for Double; never add weights, text lists or tasks across routes.
