We want to make sure it offers your students the opportunity to develop their German language skills to their full potential, equipping them with knowledge and confidence they can use both in and outside of the classroom.  \nWe have focused on ensuring that our assessments are clear, accessible and discriminate effectively, and that our content is engaging and relevant.  \n1.1.2 Languages beyond the classroom  \nWe want to provide a specification that you can enjoy teaching while delivering the assessmentsand results you and your students deserve.  \nThe importance of attracting students of all abilities to languages has been a high priority as we’ve designed our content, and we believe our approach will help you inspire and engage your students.  \nWe know that the culture of the wider German-speaking world is one of the aspects of languagelearning which excites students and brings the subject alive and it was important to us that this was clearly represented. This is why we’ve designed a specification that can help build your students'cultural knowledge alongside their language skills.  \n1.1.3 Supporting your teaching  \nWe know assessment and we are here to answer your questions and always provide up-to-date, expert advice. We’re here to support you throughout the year, helping you prepare for each exam season.  \nOur network is the largest of any exam board. From day one, you’ll be surrounded by experts and enthusiastic people with the same goal – helping students to get the results they deserve. Be it having questions answered, facilitating conversation or mutual support, our community is second to none.  \nYou can find out about all our German [qualifications at](qualifications at aqa.org.uk/german)[ ](qualifications at aqa.org.uk/german)[aqa.org.uk/german](qualifications at aqa.org.uk/german)  \n1.2 Support and resources to help you teach  \nWe’ve worked with experienced teachers to provide you with a range of resources that will help you confidently plan, teach and prepare for exams.  \n1.2.1 Teaching resources  \n[Visit](Visit aqa.org.uk/8662 to see all)[ ](Visit aqa.org.uk/8662 to see all)[aqa.org.uk/8662](Visit aqa.org.uk/8662 to see all)[ to see all](Visit aqa.org.uk/8662 to see all) our teaching resources.
