GCSE SPANISH 3

GCSE SPANISH 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Aims and objectives This GCSE specification in Spanish for use in Wales is based on a conviction that learners studying a modern foreign language will develop their desire and ability to communicate with and understand speakers of Spanish in a variety of contexts and for a variety of purposes. The specification supports the aim that the study of a modern foreign language will broaden horizons, develop cultural knowledge and understanding and foster transferable skills such as confidence, communication, problem solving and creativity. The specification also aims to provide learners with a solid foundation on which to prepare them for future language study. This WJEC GCSE specification in Spanish will enable learners to:  develop their ability to communicate confidently and coherently with native speakers in speech and writing, conveying what they want to say with increasing accuracy  express and develop thoughts and ideas spontaneously and fluently  listen to and understand clearly articulated, standard speech at near normal speed  deepen their knowledge about how language works and enrich their vocabulary in order for them to increase their independent use and understanding of extended language in a wide range of contexts  acquire new knowledge, skills and ways of thinking through the ability to understand and respond to a rich range of authentic spoken and written material, adapted and abridged, as appropriate, including literary texts  develop awareness and understanding of the culture and identity of the countries and communities where the language is spoken  be encouraged to make appropriate links to other areas of the curriculum to enable bilingual and deeper learning, where the language may become a medium for constructing and applying knowledge  develop language learning skills both for immediate use and to prepare them for further language study and use in school, higher education or in employment  develop language strategies, including repair strategies. The specification meets the Welsh Government's requirements for modern foreign languages. The content and structure have been developed based on consultation with practising teachers, senior examiners and subject experts. Consideration has also been given to the following:    

accessibility of assessments for learners of different abilities topics of interest and relevance to learners assessments which reward spontaneity and creativity by the learner length of each assessment.

GCSE SPANISH 4

1.2 Prior learning and progression There are no previous learning requirements for this specification. Any requirements set for entry to a course based on this specification are at the school/college’s discretion. This specification builds on subject content which is typically taught at key stage 3 and provides a suitable foundation for the study of Spanish at either AS or A level. In addition, the specification provides a coherent, satisfying and worthwhile course of study for learners who do not progress to further study in this subject.

1.3 Equality and fair access This specification may be followed by any learner, irrespective of gender, ethnic, religious or cultural background. It has been designed to avoid, where possible, features that could, without justification, make it more difficult for a learner to achieve because they have a particular protected characteristic. The protected characteristics under the Equality Act 2010 are age, disability, gender reassignment, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex and sexual orientation. The specification has been discussed with groups who represent the interests of a diverse range of learners, and the specification will be kept under review. Reasonable adjustments are made for certain learners in order to enable them to access the assessments (e.g. candidates are allowed access to a Sign Language Interpreter, using British Sign Language). Information on reasonable adjustments is found in the following document from the Joint Council for Qualifications (JCQ): Access Arrangements and Reasonable Adjustments: General and Vocational Qualifications. This document is available on the JCQ website (www.jcq.org.uk). As a consequence of provision for reasonable adjustments, very few learners will have a complete barrier to any part of the assessment.

1.4 Welsh Baccalaureate In following this specification, learners should be given opportunities, where appropriate, to develop the skills that are being assessed through the Skills Challenge Certificate within the Welsh Baccalaureate: • Literacy • Numeracy • Digital Literacy • Critical Thinking and Problem Solving • Planning and Organisation • Creativity and Innovation • Personal Effectiveness.

1.5 Welsh perspective In following this specification, learners must consider a Welsh perspective if the opportunity arises naturally from the subject matter and if its inclusion would enrich learners’ understanding of the world around them as citizens of Wales as well as the UK, Europe and the world.

GCSE SPANISH 9

2.1 Unit 1 Unit 1: Speaking Oral test: 12 minutes preparation time 7-9 minutes (Foundation tier) 10-12 minutes (Higher tier) 25% of qualification 60 marks This unit requires learners to communicate orally in Spanish by participating in a role play, a photo card discussion and a conversation. Assessment of this unit will also take account of knowledge of, and accurate application of, grammar and structures. The three broad themes will be covered across all of the tasks. See section 3.2 for detailed information on arrangements for conducting the speaking nonexam assessment. Learners are not permitted to use dictionaries in any part of the assessment. Task 1 - Role play

(15 marks)

In the role play a scenario will be set based on one of the broad themes. There will be 5 interactions and the learner will be required to;  respond appropriately to questions or statements as prompted by the stimulus material  formulate a question  respond to an unexpected question. These responses will target vocabulary and structures from the themes and give opportunity for learners to cover aspects of the subject content including communicating and interacting in short conversations. The format will be structured to guide the candidate during this task. This task will assess the candidate's ability to manipulate language and apply linguistic knowledge to communicate a message clearly and coherently. Task 2 – Photo card discussion

(15 marks)

The learner will be given a photo stimulus and two seen questions to respond to during the discussion. An additional two unseen questions will be asked by the teacher/examiner. The teacher will lead the questions for the discussion; however, the candidate will have the opportunity to narrate events, speak spontaneously, exchange opinions and make creative use of the language. Task 3 - Conversation

(30 marks)

The conversation will cover content from two of the three broad themes and will be divided into two parts. Part 1 will cover the broad theme not already covered by the role play and the photo card. Candidates will be given a choice of two bullet points upon which to structure their discussion. It will give candidates the opportunity to produce more extended sequences of speech, demonstrate their knowledge of the subject content not covered in the role play and photo card discussion and provide evidence of their linguistic knowledge. Part 2 will offer candidates a choice of two bullet points based on one of the other two broad themes not covered in Part 1. The same process as Part 1 applies.

3.2 Arrangements for non-examination assessment Non-exam assessment accounts for 25% of this GCSE. The following are general guidelines for the conduct of Unit 1: Speaking. All non-exam assessments must be conducted under controlled conditions as outlined below, and in accordance with regulatory requirements. Task setting Learners are not permitted to use dictionaries in any part of the assessment. Tasks will be set by WJEC. The assessment will be carried out by teachers at the centre, audio recorded and marked by external examiners. The assessment will consist of three tasks carried out in the following order:  role play  photo card discussion  conversation divided into two parts (Part 1 and Part 2). Each task will cover one of the broad themes (see page 6). Part 2 of the conversation will be drawn from one of the remaining broad themes not covered in Part 1 of the conversation. Example

Task

Theme

Sub-theme

Role Play Photo Card

Identity and culture Wales and the World – areas of interest Current and future study and employment

Youth culture

Conversation (part 1)

Conversation (part 2)

Identity and culture

Home and locality Current study or Enterprise, employability and future plans Lifestyle or Customs and traditions

The tasks will be contained in a four-page task booklet and will be clearly labelled as set 1 to 9. There will be a total of nine sets per series, each containing a different combination of broad themes. Once candidate entries have been made, a list allocating a set to each candidate will be randomly generated. Candidates must not be informed of which set number task booklet they have been allocated prior to their assessment time. Centres are required to ensure that each candidate uses the correct set. Task taking The speaking assessments will take place during a five-week period between April and May. Centres may open the packs up to three working days in advance of the first assessment date.

GCSE SPANISH 15

Preparation On the day(s) when the assessment is conducted, each candidate will have 12 minutes supervised preparation time. The candidate will be given his/her pre-allocated set and can use the time to prepare the tasks. The supervisor must ensure that during the preparation time the candidate does not have access to additional materials and that the preparation timings are adhered to. During the preparation time the candidate has the opportunity to decide which of the two bullet points presented for each theme they would like to choose for the conversation task. The candidate may, if they wish to, make notes on a single side of A4 paper during the preparation time, and may refer to these notes during the assessment. The notes will then be handed to the teacher at the end of the assessment and retained by the centre until the end of the Enquiry about Results period. There will be no restriction on the number of words or the material which the notes contain, but the candidate should not write out complete and continuous sentences nor write on the task booklet. At the end of the assessment the task booklet must also be handed to the teacher. Timings The assessment for foundation tier candidates will last 7-9 minutes and 10-12 minutes for higher tier candidates. There is no requirement to supervise candidates before the formal preparation time or after the assessment. However, centres must be mindful to limit opportunities for collusion in the setting of their assessment schedules within the 5 week period. Centres will need to keep a record of the schedule (including dates) on which the assessments are conducted. The arrangements will be subject to JCQ inspections. There will be an authenticity form for the centre to sign and declare that assessments have been conducted according to the requirements and this must be submitted to WJEC with the audio recordings.

Approximate timings Foundation tier Higher tier 2 minutes 2 minutes 2 minutes 3 minutes 3-5 minutes total 5-7 minutes total 7-9 minutes total

10-12 minutes total

The timings for each task as indicated in the table above are approximate. If a candidate has successfully completed the role play they can proceed to the next task; however, teachers must adhere to the overall timings of 7-9 minutes (foundation tier) and 10-12 minutes (higher tier). Any speaking evidence that exceeds these timings will not be marked. Teachers’ prompts for the role plays, the seen and additional questions for the photo card discussion and guidance for the conversation will be provided in a composite booklet which will be sent to the Examinations Officer at the centre in a secure pack. Teachers are advised to familiarise themselves with the materials in advance of the assessments, up to three days prior to the commencement of the first assessment. Role play The role plays contain five interactions and candidates will be instructed who starts the dialogue on their task card.

GCSE SPANISH 16

Photo card discussion The candidate will have two questions that they will see during the preparation period on their task booklet and will be asked two unseen questions. The teacher will lead the discussion by asking the two seen questions followed by the two unseen questions. The teacher may rephrase the questions, provided that the same meaning is maintained and may also repeat or rephrase questions that the candidate does not understand. Conversation Part 1 Part 1 of the conversation will cover content from the remaining broad theme not covered by the role play and photo card discussion. The candidate must choose one of the nominated bullet points for their discussion. The teacher/examiner will ask the candidate which bullet point they have chosen. The candidate will then be expected to initiate the conversation. If the candidate is unable to do so then the teacher/examiner may prompt the candidate with a question. This will be reflected in the awarding of marks for communication and interaction. Part 2 The candidate will have a choice of two bullet points taken from a broad theme not covered in Part 1 of the conversation. The teacher/examiner will ask the candidate which bullet point they have chosen and will start the conversation. The teacher/examiner must ensure that each part of the conversation is given equal timings of between 1½ and 2½ minutes for foundation tier and between 2½ and 3½ minutes for higher tier. It is important that the candidate has the opportunity to demonstrate extended responses and is supported by the teacher. Suggested questions for the conversation will be provided in the teacher's composite booklet by theme. They are examples only and are not prescriptive or exhaustive. It is important the teacher responds to what they are hearing and does not simply ask a list of prescribed questions. In both parts of the conversation the candidate should be looking to:    

provide facts and information relating to the sub-theme chosen to give and/or justify their ideas and/or opinions to narrate events or give an account of something that happened related to the topic talk about their future plans or ideas relating to the topic.

Candidates’ performance depends not only on their own skills and ability but also on the nature of the additional questions asked by the teacher/examiner. The teacher is therefore advised to familiarise themselves with the descriptors on the assessment grids for foundation and higher tier conversations and to ensure that their questioning gives candidates opportunities to achieve their potential in each section of the mark scheme.
