Spanish combines well with other A Level choices and will give you the edge that universities and employers are looking for. Studying Spanish will widen your horizons, giving you a global view of the world and will increase your employability and experiences as a global citizen.

Being competent in Spanish can enhance your earning power considerably and is an asset in any working environment. Major British firms have partnerships with Spanish and Latin American companies including top London employers who are eager to employ graduates with languages skills.

The possibilities are limitless.
