Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Mrs D. Sawyer.

Recommended Prior Learning

No prior learning is required, but students should have a clear interest in learning the language and culture of the subject chosen.


Year 10 Language Courses are studied online.  As this is an online course, prior approval will be needed before enrolling.  Students need to be aware that this course will be done entirely online and they will not have one-on-one teacher support, other than their online tutor.

Students can choose between French, Spanish, Japanese, German and Chinese, and should note their choice in the required NOTES section.

Other languages can also be chosen, but these will require a conversation with Ms. Sawyer.

Students will complete a full year of study at an introductory level.  Time will be provided in their timetables for them to work on their language-based studies.  

Students will attend a zoom lesson with their eTeacher.  This one hour per week lesson may clash with another subject, which will mean students will miss an hour per week of that subject's class time.

NOTE THAT IF YOU SELECT AN ONLINE LANGUAGE, YOU WILL ONLY SELECT TWO OTHER OPTIONS.  AS A FULL YEAR COURSE, AN ONLINE LANGUAGE STUDY TAKES UP TWO SEMESTERS OF OPTIONS.
