Course summary

Employers favour well-rounded recruits and candidates with language skills are often at an advantage. Sixth Form uptake is high and many pupils take their languages further, whether by pursuing them at degree level or by combining a language with another subject such as History, international Management or Engineering. Great emphasis is placed upon spending time in the home of a language, and all pupils are strongly urged to participate in our L6 German trip. Such an experience allows pupils to immerse themselves in German life and culture. The German department has a native Foreign Language Assistant to conduct one-to-one or small group speaking sessions with sixth formers. Sixth formers can also take part in the language leader scheme as part of their Community Service and learn the basics of how to teach languages in a primary setting while also assisting younger Norwich School pupils in their Foreign Language lessons.

Entry requirements

Admission to the school is a conditional place based on achieving a minimum of 6x6 grade passes at GCSE; this is a minimum entry requirement and higher grades might be necessary in intended A Level subjects, namely the Sciences and Maths.
