Spanish

Course summary

We offer French, German, Italian and Spanish at A Level. All four languages are taught following on from GCSE. Studying languages at A Level gives you plenty of scope to develop your interests and to analyse and challenge received opinions, enabling you to formulate your ideas on current affairs. Emphasis is placed on spoken communication as well as planning, structuring and writing essays. Grammar is taught through translation, and the study of film and literature is at the centre of the A Level syllabus, through which current and political issues are discussed. The course also contains an Independent Research Project, where a student's area of interest can be explored further.
