NSW French Continuers Stage 6 structure, expressed in Dux teaching language.
Dux tracks each dot point separately, so “I did French Continuers” becomes a list of specific things you can already do and specific things you have never been asked. Open a module for all of its dot points, written out.
Personal identity, relationships, daily life and aspirations, expressed with control of register and tense.
The communities of France, Quebec, Senegal, New Caledonia, their cultural practices and their place in the French-speaking world.
Technology, environment, work and social change, and the arguments people make about them.
Listening, reading, speaking and writing strategies, and the text types the course requires.
A French Continuers paper is not one question type repeated. Each command word asks for a different shape of answer, and each is worth a different number of marks.

HSC French Continuers - Written Paper Shape — 100 marks, 150 minutes. Practice papers in Dux are assembled to this shape rather than invented, so the timing is training too.
Diagnostic first, then questions written in the shape this course uses. Written answers come back marked against the bands, not just scored.
