Figures are for ·
The serious issue regarding the number of A* awarded in Modern Language subjects
especially French has continued and
become even more pronounced. ·
The intake profile of French has more higher-attaining students
(like other subjects such as Maths and Physics), and so they have had a higher
percentage of students gaining grade A at A-level (e.g. 38.6% of entries in 2009
[the last pre-A* year] – German 40%, Maths 45%, Physics 32% etc
compared with 26.7% for all subjects)
