English as a Foreign Language (EFL) can be defined as the study of English by people
who live in places in which English is not used as the first language for communication
(Amini Herman, 2016). EFL at Secondary Education, deals with content focusing on the
comprehension and production of the language, where students have to get an A1 level of
English as the Valencian Linguistic Model states.
On the other hand, the Communicative Approach (CA) consist in adapting the language
teaching to the real-word situation. That is, “Grammar learning is emphasized by
communication through the approaches of ‘learning by doing’, through students’
participation or co-operative completion of teaching tasks [...]then grammar can be acquired
naturally by learners.” (Chang, 2010, p. 14).
Therefore, the purpose of this study is to identify if the English level of students in the
last year of Secondary Education corresponds to the one established by the autonomous
language policy. The students observed are twenty-five 4th year ESO students at IES Serra
D’Espadà.
In order to develop the study an English level test was used to measure the level of
EFL: The students were also asked to answer a Survey with 4 open questions about the four
skills, the methodology used in class and the importance of English in their everyday lives.
The statistical analysis reveals that 1) the majority of students reach the A1 level required or
even a higher level, and 2) the students seem to produce better at writing and reading than at
speaking and listening. These results are discussed, and suggestions for further research are
given. [-]
