Part of me wants to put lol and I can't bring myself to it!). He learnt French, German, Spanish, Greek, Latin, Russian and Mandarin.Are you part of the year group that is the first or second to use numbers instead of letters for grades? Think it's something like 1-9 instead of A* to G?
We do French, German and Spanish.
At the North Lodge site, in Year 7 you get two hours a week. Each term it flips so Term 1 they get French then Term 2 they get German, and so on. In Year 8 they get 4 hours - 2 hours of French and 2 hours in German. Doesn't change at all throughout the year.
At the Church Chare site, you get 4 hours of languages in Year 9. 2 hours of Spanish, which you start. And 2 hours of French...
For GCSE, you have to pick one language out of French, German and Spanish - and get 2 hours of it. You can pick two if you're good at languages.
At A-Level, you can pick a language out of the three providing you do well in them at GCSE!
And have to do a humanity, and language. With compulsory computing instead of IT?
