What the college says

Spanish is the language of the future. It is fun, interesting and is one of the easiest foreign languages to learn. It is spoken by more than 400 million people worldwide; it is the fourth most widely spoken language as well as being an official language in four continents. Studying Spanish will allow you to have a greater appreciation of Hispanic cultural contributions; it will enable you to have a better understanding of your native vocabulary and will certainly broaden your travel experiences. As the working world rapidly progresses and becomes more globalised, knowing a language is a necessity, it will make you more employable. Spanish is very popular at GCSE and we are delighted to be able to make it available to students as an option at A level. You will develop the ability to comprehend Spanish in a range of contexts and to communicate readily in the target language for a variety of purposes. You will acquire a useful knowledge of and insight into Spanish- speaking cultures, contemporary and historic as well as valuable skills for foreign travel, further education and employment. To help you learn, you will have the opportunity to practise your spoken Spanish individually every week with our Spanish assistant. The purpose of studying Spanish at advanced level is to develop your skills beyond GCSE so that you can use and understand a much wider range of language. At GCSE you learn the language you need to talk about yourself and to cope with a visit to Spain or a Spanis
