Abstract

In this article, colleagues from the Linguistics in Modern Foreign Languages Project consider the proposed changes to the GCSE MfL qualifications in England from the perspective of linguistics. They identify several areas where engagement with key aspects of knowledge from the field of linguistics may be useful in taking forward current proposals and in avoiding unintended consequences.
