WHAT WILL I STUDY? This course will encourage students to become more confident in their communication skills, both spoken and written. At AS and A2, the topics include social issues, social trends and political and artistic culture. The AS and A2 programme will also involve the study of grammar, literacy texts and films. Students must identify a subject or a key question which is of interest to them and which relates to a country or countries where Spanish is spoken for an individual research project. The course draws on a wide range of resources that aim to stimulate interest in Spanish and the Hispanic speaking world. Topics which must be covered thoroughly in preparation for the 3 units exam. HOW IS THE COURSE ASSESSED? This is a linear qualification of two years. At the end of A2 students will take 3 examinations: 1. Listening, reading and translation 2. Writing / essay 3. Speaking / oral test. WHERE NEXT? As Languages involve aspects of both the arts and the sciences, they are particularly rich in transferable skills and are seen as very desirable in many areas of working life. As a linguist students are well placed to go into international affairs, business, the media, teaching, or translation but they may also use their language skills alongside other subject specialisms to recruit staff who can communicate with people from outside the UK.
