What the college says

Work will continue at Sixth Form Level on the four skills of listening speaking, reading and writing. A more in-depth study of grammatical structures will be undertaken, leading to a greater ability to manipulate the language for the purpose of self-expression. Classes are conducted mainly in the foreign language and students are encouraged to contribute as much as possible to discussions. A variety of contemporary topic areas such as Youth Culture, Health & Fitness, Education & Employment and Environmental issues are studied as an introduction to aspects of the culture of the target language country. Applications are welcome from candidates who have shown an aptitude for understanding language structures in the course of their KS3 and KS4 studies and who want to build on these foundations to study the language in greater depth. Emphasis will be placed on building up the fluency of the spoken language.
