German

Assessment

Progress will be assessed throughout the course. As the classes are small, there are lots of opportunities to practise your language skills, receive help and improve. There will, of course, be mock examinations too, the first of which will take place in the January after you begin your A Level studies. At the end of the course, you will take three examinations: Paper One will test Comprehension (listening, reading and translation into English), Paper Two will test Writing (two essays - one on the film and one on the novel) and Paper Three is an oral test, consisting of discussion of your research project and another topic.
