It is geared to meet the needs of pupils preparing for GCSE under the newly revised National Curriculum and supports those working towards Standard Grade in Scotland. It concentrates on the personal and interpersonal aspects of language learning. Comprising of six units of six lessons, the pupil's book provides a flexible framework of graded progression within which learners should achieve a solid foundation of language skills. Consolidation and revision are an integral part of the course, and review sections at the end of each unit provide opportunity for pupils to reinforce newly acquired language.
