Spanish

Assessment

Pupils will follow the Edexcel specification for A level. This consists of two externally-examined papers assessing listening, reading and writing and a speaking assessment. The main textbook ‘A Level Spanish’ is linked to Dynamic Learning and endorsed by Edexcel; however, further contemporary material is used and available. The topics studied are adapted to fit with changing Spanish society and include the role of the family, tourism, the world of work, politics and art as well as a film and literary study. Pupils will not only learn about the topics, but above all will become confident to discuss the issues and their opinions through class discussion. Pupils also have a range of new materials to enable and encourage independent study, which will assist in preparing them for post-18 education.
