Equipment Students require a laptop and headphones as well as an A4 Lever Arch file. Assessment Assessment dates are approximate but will be published on the school assessment calendar. A course outline with anticipated dates and topics will be published on Schoolbox under each language in February so students can plan well in advance. Protocols and policies with regard to the management,marking andmoderation of internal assessments are in accordance with school policy. Students are encouraged to familiarise themselves with these processes. Note: in 2021 there are NO reassessment opportunities for internal achievement standards offered. The Interact andWriting portfolios are conducted over three terms and students are considered to have ample time to reformat the two samples required for each before the final submission.

Periods per week Five Description
At Level 3 students continue to build upon the skills and language structures learnt in Level 2,with the same achievement objectives outlined in the Level 2 description. Greater skill at manipulating the language is required,with emphasis on being able to develop an extended point of view. Students at this level are expected to explore differing viewpoints to their own and acknowledge other perspectives on societal issues. There is added emphasis on quality of thought and depth of argument. Topics of study include the environment, immigration and integration of immigrant populations, the rise of Islam, social issues – for example, the rising number of homeless – all provide a stimulus for much discussion and exchange of views. Students study filmand analyse literature as well as reviewing text types. Authentic material is now very much in evidence. Technology
