“Portuguese is cheerful and sweet, like a language of birds.”
Paulo Rónai
Students are drawn to Portuguese for various reasons. Some recognise its significance in global commerce, engineering, law, and finance, while others perceive it as indispensable for diplomatic and international relations roles. Additionally, the allure of Portugal’s rich cultural tapestry, from its celebrated music and literature to its vibrant artistic traditions, captivates many.
The A level Portuguese syllabus provides a comprehensive exploration of Portuguese-speaking societies, delving into contemporary issues, cultural expressions, and political landscapes. From mastering conversational fluency to analysing complex texts, students hone their language skills to engage with authenticity and precision, preparing them for higher education or professional pathways.
A level Portuguese offers careers in translation, international business, diplomacy, and tourism. Mastery of Portuguese is advantageous in global trade, cultural exchange programs, journalism, and academia. It opens opportunities in multinational companies, governmental and non-governmental organisations, and positions requiring language skills in Lusophone countries across diverse sectors.
