Course summary

In an increasingly globalised world, learning a second language will open many doors. Not only will you become a confident speaker of Spanish but you will also develop an understanding of a different culture and understand the importance of challenging stereotypes and prejudices. The breadth and depth of the A-level, which includes literature, film, politics and culture, will also equip you with communication and critical thinking skills which are in demand by employers.

Entry requirements

At least five GCSEs at Grade 4 or above all from the core subjects including Grade 6 in Spanish. If you have not completed GCSE Spanish but have an equivalent or higher command of the language, you may be eligible to enrol on this course.

How you'll be assessed

• Assessment tasks are varied and cover listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. • Assessment is through exams at the end of the second year, consisting of three papers, one of which is the speaking test. • There is no coursework, but the speaking exam includes a discussion of the Individual Research Project which students will have worked on throughout their second year.
