This course will inspire and give you the skills you need whether it is as a stepping stone to university or to enhance your career or travel prospects. You will be using Spanish independently for a range of purposes and you will deepen your understanding of Spanish and its culture. This course will encourage your motivation by appealing to a wide range of students' interests, with a variety of popular topics, texts, and films all linked to the culture of the Spanish communities. You will study four themes in the two years: Tema 1: La evolución de la sociedad española. This theme is set in the context of Spain only. Tema 2: La cultura política y artística en el mundo de habla. This theme is set in the context of Spanish-speaking countries and communities. Tema 3: La inmigración y la sociedad multicultural española. This theme is set in the context of Spain only. Tema 4: La dictadura franquista y la transición a la democracia. This theme is set in the context of Spain only. Through discussions, listening and writing exercises, one-to-one and small group support for oral work. You'll be expected to do some private study including vocabulary and grammar revision, reading and listening to Spanish, and completing set homework tasks. There'll be career visits and talks from professionals using language skills in the workplace and the opportunity to go on exchange and study visits to practice your language skills and experience Spanish culture. Studying Spanish opens up many career choices and gives you transferable skills including communication, critical thinking, and cultural awareness. You could go on to a language degree, a degree combined with languages, or continue your learning through short language courses outside of your main subject of study. There are jobs and apprenticeships across a range of industries requiring language skills such as in travel and tourism, international trade and logistics, and business and legal services.
Two GCSE subjects at Grade 6 and four GCSE subjects at Grade 5 grades. Grade 6 in GCSE Spanish.

One that is a written response to works and translation (2 hours and 40 minutes long, 30% of the qualification) and a speaking exam. This is internally conducted and externally assessed (21-23 minutes long, inc. 5-minute prep, 30% of the qualification).
