Germany is still the UK’s largest non-English speaking trade partner. German is the most in demand language for the highest paid jobs in Britain. Learning German is an excellent choice for young people wanting to maximise their employment chances both in the UK and abroad. An understanding of another language and culture means a more rounded world view and an opportunity for a broader horizon in life. The experiences gained by travel are unbeatable and you will have the opportunity to visit Germany, either with school to Berlin or as part of the UK-German connection language course. A Level German builds on the key GCSE skills of Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing and develops the language and intellectual skills you require to tackle real issues. You will use a wealth of real life resources to expand your vocabulary and comprehension and have a study slot each week with a native speaker to help your skills and confidence grow. A-Level German students go on to study German at top universities, complete their studies abroad or gain invaluable work experience in Germany with companies such as Siemens, BMW or Bosch.
