Students who have passed at accredited French 1 course are welcome to join this class.
If your student want to join the class, but is not sure about their level, I recommend asking for a 1:1 20 minute assessment class, so that we can be sure the class is a good fit for them. Here is the link to the assessment class:

The assessment class fees will be refunded on completion on this Cycle. 
In this class students will build on the skills they learned in their accredited French 1 class.
In this Cycle students will start to use the passé composé to tell native French speakers what they have done, as well as using the present tense to say what they are doing or what they usually do. We will cover the present tense of regular -er, -ir and -re verbs during this Cycle.
Students will have some reading passages and written exercises do do, with suitable scaffolding where needed.

I will be in France at some stage during Cycle 1 or Cycle 2, and may change to schedule to be able to do a visit to the local town while I am there (weather permitting!! French towns are not so such fun in the pouring rain!!!). I will ask students if they wish to do a visit. I cannot commit to a date at the moment, as we will be moving house in the UK in the autumn.
