The course is structured along 3 strands: The Language Strand: a graded system building up and enhancing language skills, accuracy and fluency. The Applied Bilingual Strand: modules focusing on practical skills into and out of the foreign language introducing transferable skills, such as translating and interpreting to and from English. The Area Studies Strand: modules studying the historical, political, cultural and literary background of the language. These are combined with other subject areas and are also available to native speakers of French or Spanish; the course does not include a compulsory period abroad, but the option of spending an academic year abroad (whether studying or working) exists and is actively encouraged; for post-A level students, there is also the opportunity of spending an accredited semester abroad (based on linguistic criteria); throughout the course, students compile a language and culture dossier to further their language learning process and raise awareness of linguistic opportunities.
