Reisen, Möglichkeiten, Fortschritt

 Every other year we organise a study trip to San Sebastián, where the students attend a language school and immerse themselves in Spanish life staying with host families. In 2025, the cost of this trip will be around £950. 

There are many opportunities for internal and external competitions throughout the year. On top of that students studying Spanish are encouraged to participate in the yearly House Languages event. This allows our students to increase in confidence and proficiency in a fun way. There is also plenty support for all our students. The Spanish Department holds weekly MFL clinics and clubs to support different skills and years.   

Our students enjoy studying this vibrant language which is spoken by over 460 million native speakers worldwide and our class sizes are good evidence of its popularity and awareness of its importance in the world of work.   

Furthermore, it is well known that employers value communication skills very highly. They find people who have learnt languages are articulate, flexible and adaptable.
