Strengths
• English and Literature are merged so that they are strengthened.
• Integration makes the study of literature mandatory and not optional as
before.
• Integration saves vital teaching time as there is no need for allocation of
time for literature and English. The teaching is done at the same time.
• Recycling principle employed helps in gradual acquisition of knowledge

Limitations
• Teachers must be competent in both English language and literature.
• There are no sufficient literature materials to be read. The are too cost
• Conducting field work is too expensive
• Integration does not provide learner with opportunity for wide detailed reading,
• Absence of prescribed text for oral literature and poetry creates a blind area for a non-specialized teacher.
