German

Course summary

A level German offers the opportunity to expand your knowledge of the German language and culture. It suits those who have enjoyed studying languages at GCSE level and who have an interest in deepening their knowledge of German society, culture and civilisation and can combine well with many other subjects such as English, Law, Media, History and other Modern Foreign Languages or with subjects such as Science, Maths, and Technology to give breadth in Year Twelve. It develops all four linguistic skills and the ability to analyse and present clear arguments. It is a valuable choice for those thinking of degrees and careers in a variety of spheres; the modular nature of many university courses makes it possible to combine the study of German with any number of Arts and Science degrees.
