This course aims to develop your fluency, accuracy and confidence in both written and spoken French, equipping you with a lifelong skill valued by employers. You will engage with a wide range of resources from France and the wider French-speaking world, becoming confident with a broad spectrum of authentic materials. Grammatical knowledge and understanding are integral to success in all units and as the course progresses you will also gain a deeper understanding of English. You will work independently and in small groups, practicing speaking, reading and writing and regularly learning vocabulary. You will learn transferable skills such as essay writing and research. In year 12 you will be encouraged to organise and undertake work experience in France where you will be totally immersed in the culture. This is an unforgettable opportunity, unique to learning a language but which also teaches you so much more. In year 13 your study will be more personalised and in-depth. You will undertake a research project enabling you to focus on an area of particular interest. The main topics for study are: Youth Culture and Concerns, Health, Sport and Fitness, Education and Employment and The World Around Us, Customs, Traditions, Religions and Beliefs, International Events, Literature and the Arts.
