This course will inspire and give you the skills you need whether it is as a stepping stone to university or to enhance your career or travel prospects. You will study four themes in the two years: Thème 1: Les changements dans la société française This theme is set in the context of France only and covers social issues and trends. Thème 2: La culture politique et artistique dans les pays francophones This theme is set in the context of francophone countries and communities. It covers artistic culture (through music, festivals, and traditions) and political and artistic culture (through media). Thème 3: L’immigration et la société multiculturelle française. This theme is set in the context of France only and covers social issues and trends. Thème 4: L’Occupation et la Résistance This theme is set in the context of France only and covers political culture. You will be using French independently for a range of purposes and you will deepen your understanding of French and its culture. This course will encourage your motivation by appealing to a wide range of students' interests, with a variety of popular topics, texts, and films all linked to the culture of French communities. Studying French opens up many career choices and gives you transferable skills including communication, critical thinking, and cultural awareness. You could go on to a language degree, a degree combined with languages, or continue your learning through short language courses outside of your main subject of study. There are jobs and apprenticeships across a range of industries requiring language skills such as in travel and tourism, international trade and logistics, and business and legal services.
Two GCSE subjects at Grade 6 and four GCSE subjects at Grade 5 grades. Grade 6 in GCSE French.
There will be 3 exams - one that is based on your listening, reading, and translating skills (2 hours long, 40% of the qualification); one that is a written response to works and translation (2 hours and 40 minutes long, 30% of the qualification) and a speaking exam. This is internally conducted and externally assessed (21-23 minutes long, inc. 5-minute prep, 30% of the qualification).
