Increasing uptake at GCSE or equivalent

Reflecting the experience of Routes into Languages East in the period 2008-15, our suggested approach is premised on the belief that our most effective contribution to the Routes remit is to promote and support secondary school language teachers in encouraging their students to continue studying languages through to GCSE, thus maintaining the possibility that they will then continue on to A level and university. This belief has led to the development of various projects, courses and competitions for KS3 students in collaboration with their teachers.
