GCE Advanced or what is called A levels are made up of the AS unit (three sections) and the A2 unit (three sections). Each part makes up 50 per cent of the overall A level grade and each section weighted within a range of 15-20% of the full qualification.

AS
can be awarded as a discrete qualification with its own value., or it can be the first half of the full A level. At the end of the AS year, students have two options:

• take the AS level as the final qualification

or:

• continue to the second year and go for the full A level

This unit consists of three sections;

• Section A: Reading
• Section B: Translation
• Section C: Essay

Students are required to convey their understanding of written Arabic through a series of reading tasks. They also need to draw upon and apply their knowledge of Arabic language, grammar and lexis to produce a short translation from Arabic into English, as well as demonstrate an ability to manipulate Arabic language in continuous writing.

A2
It is not a separate qualification, but the second half of the A level. The A2 is designed to deepen the knowledge students gained during the AS level.

A2 unit consists of three sections:

• Section A: Reading
• Section B: Translation
• Section C: Essays on chosen topic(s) and/or text(s)

Students are required to demonstrate skills in advanced level Arabic reading and in the transfer of meaning from English into Arabic. To promote research and a greater knowledge and understanding of Arabic culture and/or society, students must produce two Arabic-language essays in response to questions related to their chosen topic(s) and/or text(s).
