French students at Cardinal Langley benefit from smaller class sizes to maximize interactions between student and teacher, and also student to student, which enhances learning. Languages are about communication. The better we can communicate, the better the relationships we have with people. This is true at the level of an individual, and on a wider scale at the level of countries. When we learn to speak another people’s language, we start to appreciate what makes them tick - and that can benefit trade as well as help to avoid conflict between nations. An A Level in a foreign language stands out to almost any university or potential employer and is considered an impressive and desirable skill. Language competence enables people and businesses to take full advantage of the opportunities of the twenty-first century. Foreign languages are also included in the list of facilitating subjects if you are considering applying to a Russell Group university.
Five standard passes at GCSE (9-4) in five different subjects (only one BTEC will be considered), with at least one being GCSE English or GCSE Maths. A minimum of grade 5 in GCSE French. (Preferably Higher Tier GCSE) GCSE grade 5 or above in English Language.
All assessments take place at the end of Year 13. Unit 1: Listening, reading, and writing - 50% of the A Level qualification. Unit 2: Writing - 20% of the A Level qualification. Unit 3: Speaking - 30% of the A Level qualification.
