French A level

We ask for a minimum GCSE score of 5 grades at grade 4 or above in five different subjects including English Language and Mathematics. We accept equivalent Level 2 qualifications such as BTEC and OCR Nationals but will only count them as 1 grade.

In addition most subjects require at least a grade 5 at GCSE in order to take them at Level 3. Maths and Science subjects require a grade 6.

Is this course for me?

If you have enjoyed learning French and/or Spanish at GCSE and you would like to study it in much more

depth then this subject is for you!

The Basics…..

All pupils who opt to study a language have 10 lessons a fortnight. We currently offer qualifications in

French and Spanish, new specification through Edexcel.

Grammar and Translations skills will be taught within lessons as well as Speaking skills.

Great emphasis is put on the value of listening to and talking with native speakers. Regular indivusla sessions with the French assistant give students valuable opportunities to practise their oral skills.
