What you will study
Advanced study explores the society and culture of Spanish-speaking countries:
- Hispanic society and multiculturalism
- artistic culture and political life
- one set film and one set novel
- an independent research project
How it is assessed
Assessment has three parts:
- listening, reading and writing (50%)
- critical essays on the set literature and film (20%)
- speaking, including a research presentation (30%)
Where it leads
Spanish opens degrees and careers in modern languages, international business, law, translation, diplomacy and travel, with strong support for study abroad. It pairs naturally with A-Level French, sits alongside two further A-Levels and the EPQ, and connects to the Top Universities Programme. New students can read more on the Sixth Form Welcome page.
How to apply
Entry is GCSE Spanish grade 6, or an assessment of proficiency. Book a visit to meet the languages department and hear about exchange and study-abroad opportunities.
