Why AQA GCSE languages?
We have worked closely with teachers and subject associations to develop GCSEs that excite and inspire your students.
GCSE languages help students develop their ability to write and speak in the language and to understand the language when it is written down or spoken. Our range of GCSE qualifications will appeal to existing students of KS2/3 languages, helping them on their journey to further studies and the world of work.

I am really delighted with the new AQA specifications in French, German and Spanish and I can’t wait to start teaching them. I think the specimen papers are really appealing and accessible for the whole cohort.
