The Year 11 Chinese programme allows students much more independence and creativity in their language learning journey. By the end of the year students are able to cope capably with basic everyday communication in Mandarin Chinese across topics such as daily life, cultural comparisons, celebrations and festivals, school life, travelling, and wellbeing.

The four skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening are all addressed as well as exposure to cultural elements of the Chinese speaking world.   

In the assessment framework for 2024 there are internal assessments based on speaking and writing and external assessments based on listening and reading

Year 11 Chinese is a year long course, 7 periods per cycle.
