The purpose of the course is to build on prior learning and to develop progressively the candidate’s knowledge of the Spanish language, her/his competence in the four skills of Speaking, Writing, Reading and Listening, and her/his ability to handle the Spanish language in defined contexts. At this level, the development of the ability to understand and to express ideas and opinions in the Spanish will form an important part of the course and Unit content.
Spanish language competence at Intermediate 2 level will be developed by extending the range and complexity of the Spanish language encountered by the candidates and by encouraging an increase in the range, fluency and accuracy in the Spanish language that they produce. In addition to exchanging factual information with increased competence and confidence in the prescribed Spanish language contexts, candidates will be expected to begin to develop the proficiency in the Spanish language necessary for understanding and expressing ideas and opinions. Course assessment will derive from the three prescribed themes and will test the Spanish language ability as defined above.
The prescribed themes and topics provide the focus for a range of activities which develop the four skills of Speaking, Writing, Reading and Listening in a variety of combinations for different uses (productive, interactive, receptive, mediating) and provide a context for work aimed at developing the candidates’ knowledge of the structure/grammar of the Spanish language.

Spanish language development will be encouraged in the following ways:
Spanish language use – productive/interactive/mediating:
• by extending the candidate’s ability to exchange factual information orally and in writing in the target Spanish language on events and issues of personal and topical interest

• by extending the candidate’s ability to express simple views and opinions orally and, where appropriate, in writing in the target Spanish language on events and issues of personal and topical interest
Spanish language use – receptive/interactive/mediating:
• by extending the candidate’s ability to listen to texts of increasing length in the target Spanish language and demonstrate understanding of Spanish language of increasing complexity related to the prescribed themes
• by extending the candidate’s ability to read texts of increasing length in the target Spanish language related to the prescribed themes, for gist and detailed understanding
Knowledge about Spanish language:
• by extending the candidate’s awareness of key aspects of grammatical structure
• by extending the range of grammatical structure which the candidate can deploy

The Unit builds on existing good practice by encouraging an integrated teaching approach, which seeks to develop skills in combination rather than in isolation. Progression from previous levels will be in terms of the candidate’s ability to handle Spanish language in gradually more sophisticated ways, and in terms of the range of Spanish language encountered by the candidate. The quality and increasing accuracy of the Spanish language which s/he produces, together with its content, will also reflect this progression.
