All pupils study French in Years 7 and 8, with the option to continue it into Year 9 alongside another modern language or Latin. Learning is enriched beyond the classroom through annual residential trips to France.
At GCSE level, pupils cover a wide range of topics and gain a strong grounding in French grammar whilst also developing their written and spoken communication skills. Studying A level French allows students to reach an advanced level of proficiency in the language and provides pupils with an opportunity to explore French film, music, culture and literature. Pupils also develop an understanding of current social and political issues and trends in French-speaking societies.
We are saddened to hear the news of the closure of Durham High School.
We understand that this will be a worrying and uncertain time for pupils, their families and staff. If your family has been affected, and you would like to discuss options for your child’s education, our Admissions Team is here to provide advice and support, and to answer any questions you may have.
