Community languages Summer 25

24 October 2024

Dear Parent/Carer

It is wonderful that your child can speak multiple languages and that they use this with fluency in their home. As part of their commitment to developing these language skills, your child has requested that we support them by facilitating an opportunity to take a GCSE in this language in the Summer 2025 season.

As an academy we are very happy to support our students' GCSE aspirations. Please be aware that within our Modern Foreign Language department we do not have a teacher who is a specialist in this language however we can provide support regarding preparation needed for this subject, example question papers and what to expect in each of the exams and facilitate the exam. I am sure your child receives a lot of support at home in using and practising this language and we can signpost you to some useful websites and resources. We advise that weekly study is important for any GCSE. Students are encouraged to join the Modern Foreign Languages enrichment on a Friday from 2.30pm-3.30pm in the academy. Mr Coronil-Martinez will also facilitate some contact time with an MFL teacher to work on skills in one tutor time per week.

If you feel your child requires any further support,  please let us know and we will endeavour to help where possible.

Please complete the google form indicating that you agree with your child’s request to take this GCSE.

Yours faithfully

Mrs M Wake

Assistant Principal
