Introduction to your subject

GCSE in French will enable learners to:

+ Develop their ability to communicate confidently and coherently with native speakers in speech and writing, conveying what they want to say with increasing accuracy.
+ Express and develop thoughts and ideas spontaneously and fluently.
+ Listen to and understand clearly articulated, standard speech at near normal speed.
+ Deepen their knowledge about how language works and enrich their vocabulary in order for them to increase their independent use and understanding of extended language in a wide range of contexts.
+ Acquire new knowledge, skills and ways of thinking through the ability to understand and respond to a rich range of authentic spoken and written material, adapted and abridged, as appropriate, including literary texts.
+ Develop awareness and understanding of the culture and identity of the countries and communities where the language is spoken.
+ Be encouraged to make appropriate links to other areas of the curriculum to enable bilingual and deeper learning, where the language may become a medium for constructing and applying knowledge.
+ Develop language learning skills both for immediate use and to prepare them for further language study and use in school, higher education or in employment.
+ Develop language strategies, including repair strategies.
