Assessment

The course is linear and exams of all four skills are tested at the end of the second year. The lessons are conducted by two teachers with lessons in the target language, although the more complex structures will generally be explained in English. There are seven lessons per week in Year 12 and eight lessons per week in Year 13. In addition a set time for 1-1 Conversation is timetabled for you and these sessions allow you to practise Speaking skills and also familiarise yourself with the Independent Research Project Assessment, which you will undertake to research in Year 12 and complete at the end of Year 13. There is a great emphasis on class participation, research and presentations.
