Modern languages are unusual in that they can appeal to people with the most diverse talents and tastes. Whatever your academic and extra-curricular interests, studying a language can provide you with new insights into areas which interest you from the perspective of a different culture. Whether you are a scientist, a linguist, a historian, a musician or an artist, each language provides opportunities to pursue your particular interest. As well as deepening your understanding of another country’s culture, you will learn about a wide range of topical issues. You will read some literature, go to the cinema or theatre and discover more about a country’s history. You will also be encouraged to spend time in a country where the language you are studying is spoken and should be prepared to maximise your exposure to the language and culture via the internet, radio and films. If you enjoyed the excitement of learning to communicate in another language at GCSE, A Level language learning will offer an enriching breadth of experience. The ability to communicate in another language is one of the most important skills you can acquire and also one that, increasingly, is in short supply in this country. This means that if you choose to study one or more languages at A Level, you may make yourself more marketable when it comes to employment. A good knowledge of other languages will, therefore, not only enrich your experience of travel and broaden your mind but may also enhance your career prospects.
At least a 7 or above at GCSE in the language(s) to be studied.
