MSFCS is a new, innovative Chinese course that can be taken alongside other A level choices. It has been designed by our Head of Mandarin Chinese, Qingwei Li, to provide non-native speakers with a progression pathway to the internationally recognised HSK level 3 and 4 qualification. The course also includes an Extended Project (Edexcel ZPJ3). MSFCS is designed to further develop our pupils’ ability to understand and communicate confidently and clearly using Mandarin. In addition, it offers an insight into the culture and civilisations where Chinese is spoken, through Society Talks, exchange visits to China and other academic enrichment opportunities.
In late January the Director of Admissions allocates House places. At this time as much account as possible is taken of any preference a pupil has stated. In June, three months prior to entry, pupils visit the College to meet with Heads of Department, Housemasters, key members of staff and the Guidance Department to discuss A-level choices and tertiary education options. In August GCSE results are sent to Marlborough. All candidates (Scholars included) must achieve at least a six-grade BS or six 6’s in their GCSEs including English and Mathematics (in practice, most successful candidates will get more GCSEs at considerably higher grades than these). In September pupils arrive to begin their education at Marlborough.
