So in GCSE French AQA, my controlled assessments were:
Marks are not exact but I am sure they're only one mark higher of lower if anything.
Writing- A (26) and B (25) (1 off of A, teacher said it had a good chance of being moderated up)
Speaking- A (26) and C (23)
What grade would my CA average to and what grade would i need in the exams to get an A?
I am only asking a second opinion because I really don't want to disappoint my french teacher, and i fear that i have and just want to be more sure of the results.

Speaking (Unit 3): Total 49 raw, 71/90 ums
Writing (Unit 4): Total 51 raw, 71/90 ums
71/90 is a B, as for an A you need 80% ums which would be 72/90
Reading and listening are out of 60 ums each. The total ums is 300 for French, hence for an A you need 240 ums.
Having already (roughly) achieved 142 then you need 98 ums between reading and listening.
Hence, you need slightly above the A boundary on average over the reading and listening. (49/60 each while an A would be 48).
Last year you would have needed 28/40 in the listening, and 32/40 in the reading, however the listening this year was meant to have been really difficult so it is likely to be a little less than this.
Grade boundaries are difficult to predict so all I can tell you is that based on last year's grade boundaries for the controlled assessments then you need to average just above an A in the reading and listening papers.
Hope this helps and good luck!
