The study of a modern foreign language is a pathway to broader horizons. The course is an ideal complement to a range of subjects offering the potential for real breadth of study, whilst remaining a rigorous and highly respected qualification. Students will learn to speak the foreign language with a good degree of fluency, will develop real insight into cultures and will have the opportunity to study authentic literature and film, as well as undertaking an independent research project. In short they will learn much more than a language.
- 6 in Spanish - Five grade 4+ (ideally including English and Maths)
There are three exams. Paper 1 is a listening, reading and writing test which also includes translation from and into the language of study. Paper 2 is an essay paper where students will be required to respond in writing in the foreign language to questions set on the works of film and literature that they have studied. Paper 3 is a speaking test which involves a general discussion of some of the themes studied as well as the presentation and discussion of their independent research project.
