Course summary

Choosing an A-level language is a really smart move if you want a fascinating subject that offers you a range of career possibilities at the end and is a lot of fun along the way. At A Level you study a range of topics (such as current trends in the society of French/ Spanish speaking countries, politics, history, and culture) as well as studying a book and a film in the target language. You will also be allowed to complete an individual research project into an area of French/Hispanic society that interests you most. Opportunities By studying a language at A Level you can continue at degree level either as a main subject or in addition to one and experience a year abroad as part of your degree (no matter what your degree is in). Speakers of a modern foreign language are in increasing demand. Being able to speak a language will give you a cutting edge over your competitors, proving you have communication, memory, and organizational skills and demonstrating a broad cultural awareness in an increasingly diverse job market.
