French A level by Home Schooling- The Course

The French A Level is split into two major components - AS and A2.  The AS level can be sat in its own right.

Each lesson begins with a set of clearly stated objectives and an explanation of its place in the overall programme of study.

Effective learning is encouraged through frequent activities and self-assessment questions.

There are thirteen tutor-marked assignments (known as TMAs).

The full Advanced Level qualification comprises AS and A2. This syllabus has been chosen because it is the most suitable for distance learning.

Assessment for the AS is based on one 2 hour written paper worth 70% of the final mark and a speaking and listening test worth 30% of the final mark.
