The study of Spanish at A Level provides a deeper dive into the history of Spain, as well as providing pupils with the opportunity to study Spanish film and literature. Recently we have studied El Laberinto del Fauno by Guillermo del Toro and La Casa de Bernarda Alba by Federico Garcia Lorca. Students from Francis Holland quite frequently go on to university to read Spanish, often as a Joint Honours subject in combination with subjects such as Drama, Management, Film and, of course, other languages or Latin American Studies.
We welcome external candidates to the Sixth Form, who are assessed on the basis of reports from their existing schools, written tests, interviews and GCSE predictions. We strongly recommend that all girls have achieved at least grade 7s (A grades) in their chosen A level subjects, as those with lower grades are likely to find the Sixth Form course challenging. Both internal and external candidates may compete for Academic Sixth Form Scholarships. These examinations take place in November each year. Scholarships are also awarded for Art, Drama and Music.
