Yes, ??????????I am from mainland of China, my majoy subject was Chinese Philosophy. I had to study ??? in the Chinese Department and past the exam very well. So we cannot say ??? belongs to Xianggang Ren or Taiwan Ren. I hope that the head of Mandarin in UK can ask your headteacher to change 'Mandarin Department' into 'Chinese Department' if your Department is still 'Mandarn Department'.(I know many Departs have correct name) If we remembered the training courses were held in Edexcel, they do not aggree that ????????/?????????

However, Edexcel always equals unsimplified/traditional characters to Cantonese in the exams, I think that needs to be clarified as ??????????

Candidate can sit any part of the exam in either Cantonese or Mandarin. TaiWan students normally do the speaking test in Mandarin, but reading and writing in Cantonese.... Please can someone confirm? Many thanks On 12 March 2012 12:51, Sophia Huang <[log in to unmask]> wrote: Dear Teachers, It seems the Edexcel GCSE Chinese certificate doesn't show whether the student has done Mandarin or Cantonese. We currently have one candidate originally from Hong Kong who has completed her controlled assessment speaking in Cantonese last month. However, her parents have just contacted me and asked if their daughter can sit her GCSE listening exam in Mandarin (rather than Cantonese) in May/June. Does anyone know if this is OK or not? Please advise. Thank you very much.

I did not particularly do Beijing's, but I have prepared some readings about 2012 London Olympics for my sixth form students, which most materials were from BBC Chinese website.

My school is running a year 8 Citizenship day on 13th March. The theme is the perceived benefits of hosting the Olympic Games. We would like our students to have a sense of how Chinese people felt about the Beijing Olympics. Would anyone be willing to make some comments in answer to the following questions? - no names will be used in passing on this information: Were there economic benefits? ( tourism, regeneration of areas, facilities, etc. ) Was there development in transport? ( infrastructure built- more efficient trains, etc. ) Did the Olympics unify people? ( national pride) Were there fitness benefits? ( an impact on future fitness and participation in sport ) I would be really grateful for any response from Chinese colleagues.
