The aim of the course is for you to be able to communicate fluently in Spanish. All of your lessons will be conducted in the target language and through the topics studied you will develop a high level of competency in speaking, listening, reading and writing. You will study the language through a variety of stimuli, using authentic materials, such as newspapers, magazines, radio, television programmes and the internet. You will learn how to speak colloquially, organise discussions and present arguments and information. In addition, you will be able to write accurately in the target language. Grammar will be studied through a systematic programme relevant to the topic studied and the skills required. A foreign language is essential to giving you a well-rounded knowledge of the world we live in and a competitive edge when applying for jobs and universities. It is also a good complement to other A level subjects, such as English and mathematics. How will success help me to continue with my education or secure a good career? Success at A level in a modern foreign language shows employers and college admissions tutors that not only are you immensely intelligent, but also you have acquired first class study skills. Even if you do not study the language as your main degree course, you can often follow a subsidiary course at university. Your ability to communicate in that language will be highly valued by employers. The ability to speak, write well in and understand a foreign language is often the deciding factor when employers are choosing potential employees from a pool of suitable candidates.

This course is assessed by three examinations at the end of Year 13 including a speaking examination. Students will have to complete an independent research project in preparation for the speaking examination, read a novel and watch a film in the target language.
