yes you can, most sixth forms/colleges have a minimum entry requirement such as 5 C's at GCSE and then further requirement for each subject such as a minimum grade C at GCSE to study A level sociology. As long as you achieve the required grades to get into sixth form, you can do A-levels with foundation level GCSE's.
Most 6th forms/colleges require that you have that GCSE at C or above. Also, it is very hard to do A Level Music without GCSE Music.
Depends on your school. Grammer schools tend to have a GCSE in everything. When is ay everything i mean as in subject, no course or anything. However, most schools have the basics-obviously. Science,english,maths. You then get extras, such as; Media,art,textiles,additional science, Languages,Sociology,Geography, history, dance etc. Be careful when picking your GCSE's though. Although they sound interesting, go for the ones you know your going to enjoy and be successful in. Im happy, if i helped you.
Yes, Maths is an extremely important subject, therefore having a high grade GCSE or A-Level in the subject is essential. Employers will almost always look for a decent grade GCSE in maths, and although much of the stuff you study in maths you will rarely need to use again (e.g. Pythagoras' theorem, vectors, etc), it is essential to know for examinations. So yes, it is definitely worth the effort - one of the most important subject.
If you had done French as a GCSE, most colleges will accept a C grade at lowest. Although, for some colleges the entry requirements are lower. In some colleges you can do French AS/A2(A-Level) with a good grade in another subject that the college requests.If you didn't do French to a GCSE level, I'd say that starting French at A-Level would'NT be a good way to learn. Many colleges offer GCSE's (usually taken by college students as re-takes) in many subjects. I'd recommend you picked up some local college prospectses and looked through them.
I went to the recruitment centre and they said I needed 5 c's in GCSE's in English and maths. Most importantly, they told me that for A-level I could take any subject to get the A-levels. You need two A-levels in any subject. That is what they told me.
In short - Yes. Most people are aware that there are a number of "core" subjects which students need to study in order to gain good college and university places, and to succeed in the work place. Typically, GCSE English, GCSE Maths and the GCSE dual Science syllabus are the "big three" subjects in this respect, and most employers and further or higher education establishments stipulate grade C or above for GCSE Maths, GCSE English and GCSE dual science as the syllabus for each of these subjects is considered to teach students skills which are vital for all aspects of life.

It depends on the university you want to apply for, considering that medicine is a competitive career you most probably need a minimum of 5*. However some universities are nicer and if you do extremely well in a levels then they won't mind so much about GCSE's. the most important GCSE's you have to concentrate on are biology, chemistry, maths. It would be best to get a* in them, it takes the pressure off at a level.
well to do photography in most colleges you need a minimum of 5 GCSE's, but in a few others you may not.

There is no GCSE in teaching. There are a number of ways into primary or secondary teaching, all of which require qualification at degree level. You will need GCSEs in Maths, english and science at at least grade C for most post graduate teaching qualifications. You will usually be required to have a degree in a curriculum subject and a formal teaching qualification either included in your degree (4 year QTS) or a postgraduate certificate of education. (1 year)
