Chinese

Course summary

The Mandarin A Level course gives students the opportunity to not only study the Mandarin language in a much more sophisticated way but also to go into more depth on the topics we covered at GCSE such as family, education, work, environment and festivals. They will also learn about more complex issues such as the economic reforms of 1978 that fundamentally changed the global economy and China’s world status, as well as immigration, traditional customs and the changing face of modern Chinese society.
