    • Description

    WHAT DOES THE COURSE INVOLVE?

    A Level Spanish will take your knowledge of the Spanish language to the next level, but will also give you the opportunity to explore fascinating aspects of Hispanic social, cultural and political life. The emphasis of study at A Level is on learning more about how the language works, mastering grammatical structures, expanding vocabulary and gathering knowledge, understanding and opinions about a range of more advanced topics that go beyond the personal information you focused on at GCSE.

    Students will have many opportunities to develop confidence and competence in the key exam skills using a variety of up to date authentic sources and materials (audio, video, printed, on-line), teaching strategies and topic areas.

    Throughout the A level course students will:

    • develop knowledge and understanding of aspects of hispanic society, culture and history of the country or countries where Spanish is spoken, studying themes from each of the following areas:
    • Year 1 Aspects of Spanish-speaking society: current trends (the changing nature of the family, the "cyber-society", the role of voluntary work)
    • Year 2 Aspects of Spanish-speaking society: current issues (features of a diverse society, life for the marginalised, how criminals are treated)
    • Year 1 Artistic culture in the Spanish-speaking world: (cultural heritage, contemporary francophone music, cinema)
    • Year 2 Aspects of political life in the Spanish-speaking world: (young people’s involvement in politics, the right to vote, unions, strikes and demonstrations, politics and immigration)study a film in year one
    • Study one text and one film or two texts from the list set in the specification
    • Year 2 Independent Research Project on a topic of personal interest

    Further Course Information can be found here

    WHAT DO I NEED TO JOIN THE COURSE?

    Grade 6 in GCSE Spanish. If this has not been studied, applications will be considered on a case by case basis.

    CAN I TAKE ADDITIONAL QUALIFICATIONS?
