Course summary

A level Spanish offers the opportunity to expand your knowledge of the Spanish language and culture. It suits those who have enjoyed studying languages at GCSE level and who have an interest in deepening their knowledge of Spanish society, culture and civilisation and can combine well with many other subjects such as English, Law, Media, History and other Modern Foreign Languages or with subjects such as Science, Maths, and Technology to give breadth in Year Twelve. It develops all four linguistic skills and the ability to analyse and present clear arguments. It is a valuable choice for those thinking of degrees and careers in a variety of spheres; the modular nature of many university courses makes it possible to combine the study of Spanish with any number of Arts and Science degrees.

Entry requirements

- We will normally require students to have taken Higher Tier papers in all four skill areas, and to have achieved a very high GCSE grade, grade 6 being an absolute minimum entry requirement, though most students have an 8 or 9 grade at GCSE. You will need to have studied grammar extensively and have a sound knowledge of the grammatical structures of the language and a broad vocabulary. You must be able to manipulate the language and use it for the purpose of every day communication. An interest in current affairs is also a great asset. - At least eight GCSEs (including English (Language or Literature) and Mathematics at a minimum of Grade 6)
