Alison,
Just a point of information on this - are you referring to job applications
or to undergrad or postgrad applicants for courses? I assume most employers
would accept an A level in English (lang, lit or combinations thereof) as
valid qualification from a native English speaker. Where's the difference?
Hope I'm not too off beam here.
Richard.

> I have been asked by colleagues within the University for my views on
whether we should accept A-level language qualifications from native
speakers of that language. The question has been put specifically in terms
of the acceptance of A-level Hindi or Urdu, but I would think that the
acceptance or not should apply to all languages, otherwise this does present
a problem.
