The exams are so close, especially the speaking!! If anyone on here does A Level French could you please suggest any possible way that I can improve my grades because my teacher is actually awful and is failing the entire class. At the minute the majority of my class are getting Ds and Es and with exams so close I'm at a loss as to know how to actually revise. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

What are you currently up to? Have you read/watched the pieces you're studying for the essays? Have you done your IRP?

Currently making my way through my IRP, I've got my topic so I'm in the middle of my research. We've read the book (kinda, we read it on our own over the summer and my teacher briefly goes over it every now and then) and we've watched the film. I'm trying to keep on top of grammar but it is everyone's weak point because we haven't done a grammar lesson since last May!!

I use it with my own students. It has the big advantage of being written with self-study in mind, so the answer section gives additional explanations in areas where you might have gone wrong.
Every student I know (whether I've taught them myself or not) who has actually gone and done every single exercise in this book has got an A*.

If your teacher is reluctant to teach your class grammar, or if he/she struggles to explain it well, then I'd recommend this book which, in my experience as a teacher (and a bit of a grammar fanatic!), is the best currently available: https://www.amazon.co.uk/French-Gram.../dp/095706120X

Wow ! That's impressive - I'm definitely going to have a look at that book
(I'm currently retaking the old spec AQA French A level) It would be wonderful if you have any other useful French resource recommendations !!
