This course is an excellent choice for those who not only enjoy languages, but also those who enjoy history, literature or even geography. A-level French is an opportunity to study a course that is varied and interesting; it is a real ‘deep-dive’ into modern French culture and French history. For those who are considering higher education or university it adds another dimension to your studies and creates opportunities for study abroad as well as distinguishing you from other candidates. Languages undoubtedly improve communication skills and open up the world for travel, depending on class sizes a trip abroad would also be offered, in order to experience this first hand. French at A-Level builds upon the knowledge and skills that you have acquired at GCSE. The lessons are all taken in French and you will be discussing a wide range of contemporary issues, considering two sides of an argument and forming your own opinions. You will read and listen to higher level texts and you will learn to write using language adapted to suit different audiences.

Paper 1 – 50% Written exam, 2h30 Paper 2 – 20 % Written exam, 2h Paper 3 – 30% Oral exam, 21-23 mins, including 5 mins prep
