There are some advanced level subjects which provide suitable preparation for entry to university generally, but which we do not include within the facilitating subjects, because there are relatively few degree programmes where an advanced level qualification in these subjects would be a requirement for entry. Examples of such subjects include Economics, Religious Studies and Welsh. Advanced-level Welsh has separate curricula for first- and second-language Welsh speakers. The former develops literary and linguistic skills equivalent to those in advanced-level English; the latter develops skills equivalent to those in Modern Languages. Both routes are suitable preparation for university study in.
