Language Hub: Polish A level AQA

Applications Open – 3rd November 2025

Applications Close – 31st July 2026

Entry Requirements –We do have entry recommendations for some courses, especially A-levels, as we would not want you to start a course that would not be suitable for you. We want to give you the best chance of future success.

The course programmes are flexible: students can mix Level 3 courses with Level 2 courses, or A-levels with BTECs. We provide impartial advice and guidance and seek to put you on the courses you want and are likely to be successful in.

Students are expected to study up to 3 A level equivalent subjects (this can be from either A levels and/or Level 3 BTEC subjects) building their own personalised combination of Level 3 subjects OR a full time Level 2 course.

The sixth form runs on a flexible timetable with some courses running until 6.00pm. This flexibility means we can offer as much as possible, to as many as possible, as often as possible.

How to Apply – Please apply via Kent Choices.

Learning a foreign language improves career prospects, facilitates travel, and enables the discovery of diverse cultures and communities.

Additionally, consider the KLS Language Academy course, as it offers an alternative pathway for studying languages.

Students study social issues, political life, and artistic culture within the Polish-speaking world, alongside a significant focus on grammar and an individual research project.

Topics include past and current trends and issues, the Polish family, the digital world, the impact of emigration, artistic culture including festivals, traditions, and music, and political life, such as Poland's role in the European Union and youth engagement in politics.

Students also study two literary works – one book and one film – analysing and responding critically in writing to these in Polish

Paper 2: Writing (20% of A Level)

Paper 3: Listening, Reading and Writing (37.5% of A Level)
