Spanish

If you are interested in languages and Hispanic culture across the world, then Spanish is an excellent choice for you! Learning a language develops many key skills such as communication, resilience and adaptability.

Studying Spanish at A level will build on the foundations at GCSE to give you the confidence to speak and write Spanish to a high level, you will also become confident in dealing with language in it’s written and spoken form from a variety of authentic sources, allowing you to reach your full potential as a linguist. Not only this, but studying Spanish also encourages empathy, tolerance and an appreciation of global Hispanic culture.
