The AQA specification builds on the knowledge, understanding, and skills you will have acquired whilst studying GCSE German. It includes a range of topics related to the German-speaking world, including social issues and trends, political and artistic culture, and grammar. This course provides a balanced, well-rounded study of German, in which language and grammar are developed, revisited, and reinforced throughout the course through the cultural elements. The subject content is relevant to the modern-day German-speaking world and interesting to learn. Topics include social issues and trends, political and artistic culture, grammar, German texts, and an individual research project. There are many opportunities to develop practical communication skills which will benefit you throughout your future career. In a climate where language skills are in demand, but few people study them, a language qualification will set any candidate apart from the rest of the field. A-Level German students are in demand because they have a range of soft skills that can be transferred to other areas. Other professional careers also welcome a German qualification, as it shows an ability to communicate effectively empathize with other people and cultures, and show an interest in the wider global community.
Minimum of five GCSEs (or equivalent) with grades 4-9 (A*-C). This must include at least four full course GCSEs. Grade 6 in GCSE German and Grade 5 in English language or English literature.
AQA German is a linear course with terminal examinations at the end of the A-Level year. These include written examinations, listening and responding to texts in German, translation, discussion and an individual research project.
