Solid language skills are crucial for enterprises’ ability to remain competitive in an increasingly globalised and mobile economy. Those who speak modern foreign languages are liable to be key players. Already, language graduates have one of the highest employment rates of any subject, as the ability to communicate in a foreign language and understand foreign cultures is highly prized by employers. In addition to these arguments for pursuing language learning to the limit of one’s ability, are the more traditional – but no less valid – attractions of language learning: communication with others on a personal and social level; the exploration of foreign cultures, their literature and their philosophy; the greater rewards to be had from foreign travel when you speak the language.
GCSE Grade 7 in the appropriate language is strongly advised.
• Paper 1: Listening, Reading and Writing—50% weight of final qualification. • Paper 2: Writing—20% weight of final qualification. • Paper 3: Speaking—30% weight of final qualification.
