This course is for students who want to continue studying Spanish after GCSE. It will suit you if you enjoy languages and want to develop your understanding of Hispanic culture and society. It takes time and dedication to become confident in a language so you'll need to be hard working and willing to persevere. You will build on the four skills of listening, reading, writing and speaking that you began at GCSE, growing your confidence in written and spoken Spanish. You'll develop more sophisticated knowledge of the grammatical system and structure of the language and increase your repertoire of vocabulary, phrases and expressions. You'll learn how Hispanic society has been shaped, socially and culturally through exploring topics such as the family, divorce, equal rights, multiculturalism and the influence of the Catholic Church. You'll examine Spanish identity within Spain and in the wider Spanish speaking world through its food, costumes and cultural heritage. You'll see how young people engage with politics and learn about Hispanic political history. You will have the opportunity to study a Spanish language book and film in depth. You will also analyse a subject or important question of interest to you that relates to a theme within the literary or film works studied.
Grade 6 in GCSE Spanish
There will be 3 exams at the end of the second year. Listening, reading and writing will be a written exam of 2 hours 30 minutes. Writing skills will be examined through a written exam of 2 hours duration and speaking skills through an oral exam lasting 23 minutes in which you will discuss a situation presented to you via a stimulus card and have the opportunity to present and discuss your research topic.
