What the college says

At A level study of Spanish moves away from the day to day practical matters covered in GCSE and gets to grips with wider raanging issues. You will find yourself practising your language while learning about topics such as sport and health, women's role in society, drugs, the media and racism. There is also the chance to approach the language through historical or literary topics depending on the gruop's interests. For most people knowledge of a language is like having a driving licence. It may not be the main requirement of their career but it opens up extra opportunities in whatever career they choose. Whatever you want to do, having a language will give you access to Europe.
