Course summary

As well as studying one literary text and one film in French, you will explore artistic culture, current trends and issues in society, and aspects of political life in the French speaking world. Examples of topics include: ‘French diverse society, immigration and racism’, ‘Cinema, music, architecture and gastronomy’, ‘Impact of scientific and technological progress’ and ‘Causes of poverty in Europe and developing countries’. Whilst there are many more topics, these give you a flavour of what you will learn. In your A Level language lessons, unlike at GCSE, you will be exposed to a wider range of linguistic skills, including essay writing, debating and translation. As part of your oral exam, you will be required to give a presentation on a subject of your choice that you will have researched, allowing you to pursue something which personally interests you, whilst gaining independent research skills. You will learn to use language to discuss concepts, rather than just facts.
