I note from the ALL report on this year's A levels http://www.all-languages.org.uk/uploads/files/Events/ALL%20A-Level%20Results%20Report%202011.pdf that the number of entries for A level Chinese were up by 865. I am interested to know to what extent these are non-native speaker entries or whether there are more Chinese pupils currently studying in England. If your school entered non-native pupils for AS or A2 Chinese, how did they do?
Thanks
Mary

Subject: AS/A2 and GCSE results for Chinese Summer 2011
Dear Colleague
I am writing to ask if you would click on the link below and fill in the following questionnaire about your school’s Chinese results this summer.
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Chinese_exam_result
The Chinese Networks team is trying to collect as much data on this as possible so that:
· We can use this to celebrate and demonstrate the growth of the study of Chinese across the country with key stakeholders and those in government
· We are aware as quickly as possible of any issues arising so that we can have discussions with the Exam Boards if necessary.
The form is focussing on GCSE and AS in particular, but we would very much like to know about your A2 and IB results. Please do report these results (and any others) in the comments box.
Please be assured that the results of an individual school are for our internal purposes only, to be used in looking at overall trends across the sector.
Really hope that you will take the time to fill this in and return it as soon as possible. The ‘done’ button sends the survey to us automatically. You can either do the whole lot after the GCSE results come in next week or enter your school’s AS results this week first. When you press ‘done’, you will still be able to go back to the form to fill in the second half of it next week. If there is anything else you want to make us aware of specifically, please do follow this up with an email to [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>.
Best wishes and thanks in advance
Katharine
