  7. What will I study and how is it assessed? • Continue to develop the 4 skills of listening, reading, speaking and writing • Develop a more detailed understanding of grammar which can also help your written accuracy in English • Learn more about the culture and customs in France and French speaking countries or Spain and Latin America • No coursework. • 4 Exams in May 2022.
