IGCSE Spanish

Outstanding education

The Spanish course develops a set of transferable skills for understanding and communicating in everyday situations in Spanish.

The IGCSE course aims to:

  • Develop the language proficiency required to communicate effectively in Spanish at basic user level with elements of independent user level.
  • Offer insights into the culture and society of countries and communities where Spanish is spoken.
  • Develop an awareness of language and language learning.
  • Encourage a positive attitude towards speakers of other languages and towards other cultures.
  • Form a sound base of skills, language and attitudes required for further study of Spanish.

The subject content is organised into five broad topic areas:

  • Everyday activities
  • Personal and social life
  • The world around us
  • The world of work
  • The international world

Assessment is through four examinations.
