Read about French
In GCSE French, you'll cover a variety of topics such as daily life, free time, culture and holidays, education, work, and global issues. These topics help you learn practical language skills that can be used in real-life situations.
The difficulty of GCSE French varies from student to student. If you enjoy languages and practice regularly, you may find it manageable. Consistent practice, participation in lessons, and a willingness to engage with French outside the classroom—such as through music or films—can make it easier.
By the end of GCSE French, you should achieve a level roughly equivalent to A2 to B1 on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). This means you can understand and use basic phrases in everyday situations, and have a simple conversation on familiar topics.
Taking GCSE French can open up opportunities for further language study, improve your cognitive skills, and enhance your employability. It also enriches travel experiences and allows you to connect with French-speaking cultures and communities.
