At A Level, students develop their awareness of the culture and society of France and French-speaking countries. All students are actively encouraged to develop their language skills through the use of a variety of media. Languages complement many subjects at university and the skills learnt through languages are easily transferable to other A Levels and further study. Knowing a foreign language will help to improve your cultural awareness, increase your adaptability and make you a more confident and effective communicator. A Level French covers a wide range of topics which are covered over four themes. Theme 1 : Changes in French society Family, education, world of work. Theme 2: Culture in the French-speaking world Music, media, festivals and traditions. Theme 3: Immigration and multi-cultural society in France The positive impact of immigration and the extreme right in France. Theme 4: The occupation and role of the resistance in France during the Second World War. Occupied France, the Vichy regime and the resistance movement. The film Les Choristes and book Thérèse Desqueyroux you study link to the topics, giving you further insight into French culture and History. As part of the speaking examination you will need to complete an Independent Research Project based on your own area of interest related to the society and culture of the French-speaking world.
