Information on GCSE Welsh

It is a statutory requirement that all pupils study Welsh language in Key stage 4. We prepare all pupils for a GCSE qualification in Welsh Second Language. The course gives all pupils the opportunity to reach their potential in Welsh.

Pupils develop their interest in Welsh and enthusiasm for the language. They will develop essential skills which fulfil the needs of candidates, employers and further education.

They will develop the skills to make practical use of the language in order to communicate effectively in the bilingual Society of the 21st century.

 

The course is taught in years 10 and 11. Pupils will therefore leave having gained the full GCE qualification.

Pupils will sit 1 oral exam in Year 10 and 1 oral in Year 11 along with a reading and writing examination.
