The A level French course builds on the knowledge, understanding and skills gained at GCSE. You will gain a range of transferable skills including communication, critical thinking, research skills and creativity. As well as developing your language skills, you will widen your knowledge and understanding of themes relating to the culture and societies where French is spoken. Examples include technological and social changes, highlights of French-speaking artistic culture, including francophone music and cinema, and who wields political power in the French-speaking world. The most successful A level linguists have always shown a commitment to and an enjoyment of the subject which extends way beyond the classroom. We encourage you to read foreign language magazines, newspapers and books, participate in theatre and cinema visits, and attend lectures out of school. We also encourage you to arrange an exchange visit, a study trip or work experience in a Frenchspeaking country.
