Spanish
at Kirkbie Kendal School, Kendal · school or sixth form
What the college says
Spanish links well with any other subject in the curriculum, in particular history, English language and literature, media studies, business, politics or as part of a broader curriculum alongside STEM subjects. The course may lead you to continue Spanish post A-level alongside another language or allow you to progress to learning a different language. More often than not, it is possible to study a language alongside nearly any other subject at university, which can give you a builtin year abroad and a Unique Selling Point as you enter the world of work.
What you need to get on
Higher tier GCSE preferably at least grade 7. But a high grade 6 with a genuine interest in the subject and a willingness to work hard, also considered. You must feel comfortable and be confident with verb conjugations and tenses.
How you are assessed
Academic subjects, mostly exams, three or four at once. The traditional route to university.
What this level means
The A-level-equivalent step, and what universities and employers ask for.
Is it open to 16 to 18 year olds?
Approved for 16 to 18 study on the government's Section 96 list.
