This course builds on work covered in Year 9. At this level, students learn to describe aspects of their own background and immediate environment and to draw comparisons with everyday life in France. This is achieved through study of modules on topics such as personal identity, school, food, hobbies, getting around town, holidays and Paris.

The emphasis of this course is on communication, and students will continue to extend their speaking, reading, writing and listening skills. Learning is enhanced by a variety of supporting media and modern technology. Regular learning of new vocabulary remains a foundation for success in this subject.
