From guardian.co.uk -- The number of teenagers dropping languages at GCSE has not increased, but there is little sign of any improvement despite efforts to raise interest, new research suggests.
Teenagers at state schools dropped foreign languages in droves after ministers made the subject optional for pupils over 14 in 2004, though languages have remained popular subjects in private schools.
