Mandarin
The one-year Mandarin course provides opportunities for students to apply knowledge independently and to develop their language skills to interact effectively with Mandarin speakers. Students will engage critically with a variety of texts, Chinese culture, literature and films. Students can take ISEB Mandarin Assessment Level 1 assessments if they wish to have a qualification.
