Spanish
Course summary
This AQA course allows pupils to build on the core vocabulary and grammar which they developed during their GCSE studies so that they can become fluent speakers with a keen understanding of the geography, history, literature and film of their linguistic area of study. The focus on technically-advanced translation also ensures that our pupils will be able to pursue university courses in Spanish and find employment using these skills at any point in their adult lives.The course is designed to develop pupils' interest in the Spanish-speaking world so that they can comment on themes ranging from Latin American Dictatorship to Pre-Hispanic civilisation. Pupils will study two broad themes: aspects of Hispanic society, and artistic culture in the Hispanic world. Pupils will also study a film in Spanish which they will analyse in detail.
