French

Course summary

The languages that we offer at A level are French, German and Spanish. The work builds on the foundations established at GCSE, in which the student should normally have achieved an A or an A* grade in the language. An A Level in a modern language will enable the student to speak and write the language with confidence as well as understand more advanced written and spoken language across a variety of situations. It will also provide the student with practical and transferable skills as well as broaden their cultural horizons; the courses are enjoyable and interesting in addition to being academically rigorous. Moreover, in the job market, advanced linguistic skills are valued by many employers.
