Parlez-vous français? While continuing your study of the French language and developing your language skills on this course, you will gain insight into the history, culture and social issues facing French speaking countries today. In both years 12 and 13 you will have weekly conversation lessons with our French Language Assistant to improve your fluency, whilst gaining up-to-date insights into current affairs. The first year of the course concentrates on topics which link to and stretch beyond subjects covered at GCSE, whilst in the second year you will discuss and debate more controversial social and political issues. The course specifications provide the opportunity to enjoy and discover French film and selective, engaging and accessible French texts in both Y12 and Y13. Throughout the course, you will build up a bank of relevant cultural knowledge, exam technique and linguistic breadth that will give you confidence in tackling exam questions. More importantly, you will develop the communication, comprehension and cultural awareness skills needed to study at degree-level or live and work in the Francophone world.
