My dd is taking her options this year, option evening Thursday. They had been told they have to pick either French or German, so my dd pretty much decided on French, until we got a letter home today saying top set students can do both languages but will have to have lessons after school 2 days a week. This means they will do 12 GCSE instead of 11 but there will be a lot of extra homework/ revision.
My dd really wants to do both as she loves languages and I think it's a good idea but I wondered if anyone had any experience of this, any advice whether it is too much work, too much pressure or if it is a positive experience.
Any advice or opinions would be really helpful.
