Spanish A Level explores the language, literature, film and culture of the Spanish-speaking world, as well as the history and politics of Spain. Spanish A Level is a natural progression for students who enjoyed the GCSE course and show aptitude as a linguist. They should have an interest in the history, culture and literature of Hispanic countries, as well as an appreciation of human and cultural differences. Students should be willing to spend time in a country where Spanish is spoken.
A typical academic profile of a girl entering Year 12 is 10 GCSEs, with the majority in grades 7 to 9. These must include English and Mathematics at Grade 6 or above AND at least a Grade 7 in those subjects you wish to study at A Level (Grade 9 in Mathematics to study Further Mathematics). At least Grade 7 in GCSE or IGCSE Spanish.
All Modern Languages follow similar units of the four skills of listening, reading, writing and speaking. The students also study films and works of literature, which form the basis of the written examination. The oral examination is based on individual research on a subject of personal interest, relating to the country where the language is spoken.
