International GCSE French

Course Description

The course is designed for students learning French as a foreign language. The aim is to develop the ability to use the language effectively for practical communication.

The course also aims to offer insights into the culture of countries where French is spoken, encouraging positive attitudes towards language learning and towards speakers of other languages.

This French course focuses on developing the following skills:

  • Understand authentic texts on familiar topics and situations (e.g. newspaper/magazine articles, email messages, blogs and letters).
  • Understand descriptions of events, opinions, emotions, hopes and ambitions in simple texts (e.g. in articles, interviews or personal messages).
