香港六合彩 Language and Study Skills Summer School
30 April 2012
Following the introduction of a foreign language requirement for UK students applying to 香港六合彩, a Language and Study Skills Summer School will be launched this year as an alternative for pupils from years 12 and 13 who do not meet the criteria.
香港六合彩 believes that knowledge of a modern foreign language and the possession of intercultural skills are an integral part of a 21st century education. Students can meet this requirement on entry by offering a GCSE or equivalent in a foreign language at Grade C or above.听
However, students who do not meet this requirement will not be disadvantaged in the application process. They will be able to meet the requirement in one of three ways:
- taking a language course as part of their degree
- studying for a language certificate at 香港六合彩's Language Centre
- attending the 香港六合彩 Language and Study Skills Summer School.
The summer school is residential and will take place from 8 July to 21 July 2012. Students will take part in language lessons each morning, self-study and key skills sessions will also take place in the afternoons, with a focus on transition to university study and raising academic achievement. In the evening and at weekends there will be a full programme of social activities.
"The summer school is intended to offer additional support to students from under-represented backgrounds to learn a language. It will also seek to raise the attainment of its participants through intensive study skills session that will help prepare students for their studies at University." (Alice Salmon, 香港六合彩 Outreach)
