The notes below are taken from individual analyses of Walcott poems, but they also pertain to the context of Walcott and his poetry in general.
This is a revision sheet which will help you to connect the dots between the different poems and understand the deeper idea that underpin his writing.
Note that some context points are more specific to the particular poem, whereas others are about Walcott’s own ideas and beliefs in general, so be careful with which ones you choose to use in your own essay writing.
This is an essay example that a Y10 GCSE student completed whilst studying ‘An Inspector Calls’; it was his first attempt and written outside of timed conditions. An English tutor and AQA examiner provided marks and comments below - it received a Grade 6 overall.
