Department Vision 

Our Spanish curriculum at Wolverley allows students to demonstrate their ‘Ambition Unlimited’. Through an ambitious, bespoke curriculum we support all of our students to develop a passion for learning and using Spanish in and out of the classroom.  Our curriculum develops an early enjoyment, love and curiosity for language learning. Learning a language allows all our students to have compassion for themselves and others, understanding the differences and similarities between our own and other cultures enabling us to grow and experience life to the full. 

 Through learning a language students can experience more of God’s world, increasing social justice, thus unlocking endless opportunities and potential. Our learning journey recognises what can be achieved when we strive to be the best we can be. Through the challenges of language learning, our students have the freedom to grow as autonomous and curious learners and strong individuals developing into the people God created them to be.
