Secondary Resources

We offer a complete range of resources which take complete beginners to success at GCSE level. Secondary School Chinese for Beginners is the first book in the series, which focuses on a solid foundation in tones, pinyin, and familiarity with core everyday language. Our unique pinyin glossing system eases students into reading Chinese without allowing them to rely on the pinyin prompt. AQA GCSE Chinese Textbooks 1 and 2 follow on from Secondary School Chinese for Beginners. Designed for the new specification, this course covers GCSE Themes such as Identity and Culture, while giving a thorough and comprehensive approach to grammar, study skills, and vocabulary. The course is full of vibrant cultural explanations and photographs which enhance the student’s experience. Each book provides access to secondaryschoolchinese.com,  which features a wide range of learning resources including auto-marking homework, whiteboard slides, and schemes of work.
