The aim of this project is to reinvigorate the Spanish department at Red Maids through a combination of new vibrant schemes of work in the sixth form working with authentic materials. With Charlie Turner aware of the most up to date techniques and interpretations when teaching literature and more secure in his own peninsular Spanish the delivery of these courses should be second to none. This in turn will serve to improve results among the girls participating in those courses and more importantly engage them with the broad range of Spanish literature that they can enjoy. Working with other MFL teacher in Spain will help aid Red Maids collaboration with colleagues in Europe as well as providing our teachers with stimulating ideas that they can share with colleagues from other schools in the UK. We believe the fundamental impact of this project will be an increase in the engagement and aspirations of our Spanish students resulting in more Red Maids students choosing to study Spanish in further education.
